![](https://opseu.org/wp-content/uploads/wp:paragraph --><h2>Revved up and ready to roar!</h2><p>Close to 50 LBED local presidents, highest-ranking officers, mobilizers and OPSEU staff met Mar. 6-7 for two intensive days of meetings and workshops to prepare and inform members of our contract negotiations with the LCBO.</p><p>"The two days were invaluable in respect to getting our local presidents prepared for what's happening at the bargaining table and to help shape the next steps in what we can do in our workplaces to inform the members of the issues that are at stake," said Nick Foti, president of local 5109 and a member of the LBED bargaining team.</p><p>"I learned plenty and I'm certain others did, too."</p><p>Those in attendance heard from Randy Robinson, OPSEU's political economist, who laid out the current political and economic climate Ontario faces as liquor board employees negotiate their next contract. He told the gathering that the LCBO is well positioned to meet LBED's contract demands in light of the Crown corporation's very healthy financial status.</p><p>"This is a public agency that returns more than $2.2 billion dollars to the people of Ontario each and every year," said Robinson. "What we are asking of the LCBO at the bargaining table is very modest indeed."</p><p>Greg Hamara, an OPSEU communications officer, led the LBED leadership through a half day of communications and media relations training with an eye focused on what local leaders might expect from their hometown media as contract negotiations continue.</p><p>"I was very impressed by the media literacy displayed by our local presidents," said Hamara. "I think we are very prepared to meet head-on the questions we can expect from the media as bargaining progresses."</p><p>Those in attendance also heard from Luisa Quarta, an OPSEU campaigns officers, who explained the importance of preparing members for all outcomes during contract negotiations.</p><p>"The key element is keeping our members informed of what's at stake for them," said Quarta, who is responsible for coordinating the activities of LBED's nine mobilizers in the field across Ontario. "Our focus is on engaging members in pulling together behind their bargaining team so that the employer knows they're dealing with a unified and informed membership of 7,000 liquor board employees."</p><p>The two days of training appear to have paid off.</p><p>"This was a great opportunity for the entire team of presidents, mobilizers and staff to pull together as one to show the LCBO our solidarity as the bargaining goes on," said Maria Bauer, president of OPSEU local 376.</p><h2><img decoding=)

What we're looking for in our new contract
Message from the Bargaining Team
As more and more LBED members begin to follow our contract negotiations, a common question is coming up: What sort of improvements are we looking for from the LCBO in our new collective agreement?
