S&A Election in the NCR, 2018
I am a steward in the S&A group since 2007; I became a union activist when I became aware that managers in CFIA Toronto’s office were not respecting employees’ rights ; so I decided to defend those who could not stand up for themselves.
In 2011 I join the S&A executives ; between 2015-2017 I was honoured when the S&A executives elected me as he president of the group.
In April, 2018 onward, I was honoured to act as the President of National Consultation Team for PIPSC in CFIA.
My main objective is to build a stronger leadership which is capable of protecting members’ rights and striving for their fair demands. I have developed working relationships with other groups in PIPSC and other unions to gain a wider support for S&A’s rights.
Achievements:
- Provided fair representation to many of S&A members in the NCR,
- Initiated dialogue with CFIA’s senior management to resolve matters pertaining to S&A’s, members, such as; HR issues, phoenix , working conditions,
- Represented the group in many meetings for National Union Management Committee,
- Have been participating in the current S&A’s collective bargaining negotiation.
