David Coward

Hello my name is David Coward I have lived in Medicine Hat, Alberta for the past 50+ years, married for 36 years and have raised 3 children all now adults. I am employed with the government of Canada since June 2002 as a Security Analyst, IT02, for the Department of National Defence for Defence Research and Development Canada at the Suffield Research Center. I was also in the Military reserves for 20+ years obtaining the rank of Sargent where I always looked out for well being of my troops and now have been retired since 2012, honorably. I have been an IT union steward since 2005 where I have attended various courses in consultation, duty to accommodate, grievances and health and safety. I have also attended union AGMs at the Regional and National levels since 2006. I always have an open-door policy for dealing with union and non-union issues at the work place, I have dealt with grievances and other issues on behave of members at CFB Suffield and the Research Center. If elected I look forward in working with others within the IT group to resolve issues that may arise.
