Brothers & Sisters,
With the end of capacity limits and the Ontario vaccination certificate system effective March 1st 2020. Under the current Reopening Ontario Act, we are now able to meet inclusively with our entire membership.
This will allow for all Local 707 members who wish to attend, the opportunity to be present as one membership.
This month’s meetings at our Union Hall are as follows:
- Retiree Chapter Meeting: Wednesday, March 16th at 10:00am
- General Membership Meeting: Sunday, March 20th at 10:00am
Note: All members are required to wear masks in these indoor meetings in accordance with the Reopening Ontario Act.
In April, it is hoped that our monthly Union meetings will continue with the worst of the pandemic behind us. These union meetings have many purposes and it has been difficult for leadership, membership and retirees to conduct regular Union business without them. It provides members the opportunity to regularly meet: learn about the union, communicate ongoing issues, events, socialize with leaders and fellow members, exchange ideas, orderly debate and make decisions that benefit of our union and community.
Finally, participation is encouraged and necessary, however for meetings to be productive and effective it is essential that all debate be respectful and as positive as possible.
In Solidarity,
Mark Sciberras
President, Unifor Local 707
