In-person opportunities to ask questions, cast your ballot
As promised in our last bargaining update, your negotiating team has set the dates for the in-person ratification votes.
At each of the scheduled dates, you will have the opportunity to ask questions of a member of your elected negotiating team before you cast your ballot.
Your negotiating team’s recommendation is that members vote “Yes” in favour of ratification.
We invite you to review this draft copy of the tentative agreement before the ratification meetings.
This Article-by-Article comparison guide might also offer some clarity before you vote and/or help you develop questions to ask your negotiating team members at the meetings.
The ratification vote schedule is below.
Click on any of worksites to download a worksite-specific poster that you can print and share with your co-workers on your union bulletin board or via your personal e-mail. We look forward to seeing you at the ratification vote.
