The Provincial Francophone Committee needs you…
Dear Francophone members, we need to make connections with each other, connections between Francophones in each of the seven regions of OPSEU and connections between each of these regions. To assume its role and fulfill its mandate, the OPSEU Provincial Francophone Committee needs to know you and to be able to communicate with you. We would appreciate it if you could send us your name and e-mail address, along with the number of your local. Could you also please forward this request to other francophone members of your local?
