August 3, 2007 OPSEU is proud to welcome the
Professional Employees at the newly-formed
Champlain CCAC. The CCAC spans the area from Pembroke to
Cornwall, including Renfrew, Ottawa, Smiths Falls and Casselman. The
run-off vote held Thursday, August 2, was between OPSEU and CIPP after a
vote last week between OPSEU, CIPP and ONA.
Lois Boggs, Sector Chair for Community Health Care
Professionals, thanks all the members for their patience during this
long campaign. “The members received a lot information in a very short
time, and were faced with some difficult decisions. We are glad to
welcome them to our sector, and thank ONA and CIPP for their campaigns.”
We especially thank OPSEU members Louise Mulligan-Roy,
Sophie Racine-Sigman, Shelley Hickson, and Chantal Barr for their
tireless work during this campaign. We look forward to representing them
and the other 380 members of one of the largest CCAC Professional units
in Ontario.
July 27, 2007 The results from the July 26 vote are as follows:
OPSEU - 64 votes, CUPE - 69
votes.
We congratulate CUPE on
their victory, and thank the OPSEU members who assisted
during the vote.
As a result, ONA will now
drop off the ballot, and there will be a runoff vote
between OPSEU and CIPP on Thursday, August 2,
2007.
Please watch here for
details on the vote as they become available.
