Brothers and Sisters,
The online Unifor Local 707 -2026 Triennial Election for the balance of term- has been announced. In the coming days Local 707 members will receive further information on how to vote online.
We understand that we have some members who are not currently at work, therefore viewing proper candidate campaign information can be very difficult.
To help ensure fair access to campaign information, and to ensure the membership is aware of all the candidates in the Local 707 Triennial election. We are pleased to announce that our Local 707 webpage will have a page dedicated allowing all candidates the opportunity to post a one-page campaign leaflet.
To take advantage of this opportunity all candidates in the election must submit their one-page campaign leaflet in PDF format NO LATER than 5:00pm June 4, 2026 to the Local 707 Election Chairperson’s email: election@uniforlocal707.ca
Please note that there will be ZERO tolerance for slander, harassment, or inappropriate campaign conduct. All materials must remain respectful and professional as per Local 707 Bylaw Section 11(a): (Which states the following)
No member of Local 707 shall circulate, or cause to be circulated, false propaganda against any member or candidate for Local Union Office, or direct propaganda against any candidate because of race, sex, creed, colour, marital status, sexual preference, disability, political or religious affiliation or place of national origin.
Candidates are also reminded that all campaign leaflets, posters, and signs displayed within the plant cannot be attached any equipment or any moving vehicles and must be removed and properly discarded by June 18, 2026.
In Solidarity,
Teresa Godin
Unifor Local 707 Election Chairperson
