Summer may be in full swing, but member mobilization doesn\u2019t stop when the weather warms up. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As we look ahead to bargaining resuming this fall, it\u2019s important that Treasury Board continues to see an engaged and united membership. On Wednesday, August 19, wear black to show your bargaining teams you\u2019re with them every step of the way \u2014 and remind the employer that our solidarity doesn\u2019t take a summer break. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Can we count on your participation?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
