Regional Bargaining Communications Award

At the CUPE National convention last month in Montreal, awards were handed out for successful communications activities. The regional bargaining group that CUPE 23 has been a part of now has an award-winning campaign. Our president, Bruce Campbell was on hand to join in the receiving of the reward. Thanks to our CUPE Communications rep Stephen Beasley for all his hard work!

Workers’ Remembrance at Burnaby Village Museum – Memorial Fountain – Nov. 8

CUPE 23 members, please join us on Friday, November 8, 2019 at Noon at the Memorial Fountain at the Burnaby Village Museum as we remember and honour those members of the Burnaby Civic Employees’ Union who served our country and gave their lives in the First World War. We will take the opportunity to recognize the service of all who came after them in other conflicts and missions around the world. We will gather and observe a minute of silence to acknowledge their sacrifices.
