About Regional Councils
Unifor’s Regional Councils and the Quebec Council are a democratic force for union activism, solidarity, and strength. They are forums of accountability and organizing centres that involve and engage local union activists in the life of the union.
The next BC Council meeting will be held November 21-24, 2019 in Whistler.
