Region 4 donates $350
January 12, 2011 A challenge has been made by Region 4 to all other Regions and Locals across the province, to make a donation to striking workers at the Maisons de la famille. These seven sisters have been without a paycheck for over eight weeks.
Support the workers at Maisons de la famille:
Workers will be picketing every day from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.
Tell the General Director, Yves Séguin, to get back to the table and bargain a fair contract with members of OPSEU Local 426. He can be contacted at: [email protected], tel: 1-866-363-3210.
To make a donation
Cheques should be made out to “OPSEU Local 426” and should mention that
that the money is intended as a donation for the striking workers.
Please send donations to Guy Belle-Isle, local 426 President: 444 Laflèche Road, Hawkesbury ON, K6A 1M9.
