Dear CUPE 441 Members,
Thank you to everyone who attended, asked questions, and cast your ballot.
We are pleased to share that the tentative agreement has been ratified by the membership.
This agreement reflects your priorities and the hard work of the Bargaining Committee. We will now move forward with finalizing the document with the employer and will update you as implementation timelines become available.
We appreciate your solidarity and engagement throughout bargaining.
In solidarity, Your CUPE 441 Executive
The local union bargaining committee has reached a tentative agreement with the employer!
We will be having a Ratification Meeting in person at Claremont this Saturday June 27th at 10am.
At this meeting, we will present the new tentative Collective Agreement in detail, and you the members, will collectively vote to ratify or reject. You are invited so that you can have a say in this important process!
On National Indigenous Peoples Day, CUPE celebrates the heritage and vibrant cultures of First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples, and their outstanding contributions to our communities.
On June 21, as part of National Indigenous History Month, we acknowledge the ongoing, fierce advocacy of our Indigenous members and Indigenous communities across the country. CUPE acknowledges that it is more important than ever to respect the rights of Indigenous peoples to their unceded territories, as well as to preserve and protect their cultures and languages.
CUPE stands in solidarity with Indigenous nations, communities and organizations and is committed to continuing to work toward reconciliation, and to respect our ongoing treaty relationships.
As part of our ongoing efforts to foster reconciliation in our workplaces and communities, we encourage all CUPE members to participate in National Indigenous Peoples Day by sharing in events on the day, and to take time to learn and reflect on the ongoing harm caused by colonialism and Canada’s treatment of Indigenous peoples.
