Bonita Smith

Bonita Smith has 35 years of work experience in both the public and private sectors. Bonita has an MBA and is fluent in French.

Being a PIPSC's member in good standing for over 12 years, Bonita has spoken with many brothers and sisters at various events and has voiced her opinion numerous times. Now is the right time for Bonita to take a more formal role and is hoping for your support in doing just that. Bonita actually lives in Halifax but works directly for Ottawa.

Bonita has evolved her business acumen to include strategic negotiations. Bonita was CCG's chief negotiator alongside TBS in CA bargaining with the Canadian Merchant Service Guild and has been involved in modern treaty negotiations in the Atlantic provinces.

Bonita is interested in becoming a member at large for several reasons, that include: - getting formally involved in PIPSC activities, business, and strategic approaches - lending my voice of experience - talking with my fellow brothers and sisters about issues we all face - contributing to the future of the public service and our professional institution in a very positive and influential way.
