| FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE November 30,
1999 OPSEU launches its French website The Ontario Public Service Employees Union now has its own French website. The address is www.sefpo.org and the site is entirely separate from the English www.opseu.org. At the last OPSEU Convention in April 1999, many francophone members of the union had expressed their desire to gain access to an Internet site entirely in French. This is now a reality. OPSEU president Leah Casselman is delighted with the new service offered to francophone and bilingual members of the union: "I think it is essential to offer this service because access to OPSEU’s French website will allow francophone members to obtain necessary information and better communicate with each other while giving the French media in Ontario an easier access to information coming from the union." OPSEU’s French website www.sefpo.org contains the following sections: Join Us, News (Press Releases and Action Faxes), Broader Public Service, Colleges, Ontario Public Service, Grievances, Search, Links, Legal, Bargaining, and Contact Us. In addition, francophone members will now have access to information on Privatization Issues, Job Opportunities, the Insurance Savings Program, and Legal News, and can read the OPSEU Constitution, and Our Ontario Magazine on line. For further information: Pierre Floréa (416) 448-7442, (416) 450-1252 (cell)
