Dear Mr. Goslin,
Re: Thank You and Solidarity with Striking OCEU/CUPE Local 1750 Members
I am writing to you on behalf of the 320,000 Unifor members across Canada to express our heartfelt gratitude and appreciation to the members of the Ontario Compensation Employees Union (OCEU/CUPE Local 1750). On a busy Canada Day long weekend, your members showed up in large numbers to visit our recently locked-out Unifor Local 4271 members on the picket line at the CN Tower (Canada Lands Company CLC Ltd.) in Toronto.
The encouragement of your members was a great boost in morale and provided the strength and resolve to get the dispute underway. Thank you for your solidarity and your amazing support.
Solidarity arises when we recognize that we are facing similar challenges and injustices. Please know that we stand with your members as you, too, fight for a fair deal that addresses long standing concerns such as secure employment and real wage improvements at the forefront. As both of our unions continue to fight, shoulder-to-shoulder, we will remain steadfast in advancing and empowering workers and their rights through collective action.
Once again, a special thank you to each of your members that stood with us this weekend.
In solidarity,
Samia Hashi
Ontario Regional Director
