Unifor is asking all locals across Canada to send as many members as possible to Regina starting January 19, 2020.
Their greedy employer has locked out nearly 800 Unifor Local 594 members since December 5, 2019. The Co-op Refinery makes $3 million dollars a day in profits. Last year, the Co-op parent company, Federated Co-operatives Limited earned more than $9.2 billion dollars. Yet the Co-op wants to cut the pensions of their loyal, hardworking employees by half, despite promising that these pensions would be protected in the last round of bargaining.
Help us fightback against the Co-op, which is acting like a greedy corporate bully.
Please contact your Local Union President for more details. If your president is not available, please email Josh.Coles@unifor.org.

If you can’t join us in Regina, you can still help by going to Boycottco-op.ca to add your name to the pledge to boycott all Co-op retailers until our members get a fair deal.
