CIU takes part in a demo at the St. Armand border

On Friday September 19th, in the context of the solidarity campaign sponsored by PSAC-Quebec during which a demonstration takes place on  on the 19th day of each month, members of the Customs and Immigration Union joined their Sisters and Brothers of PSAC-Quebec in St. Armand, Quebec to denounce the conservative government’s policies and budget cuts at the border. Members of the Union of National Defence Employees (UNDE) were also present in support to their Sisters and Brothers.

“Without the necessary staff to ensure an effective front line and intelligence capability, it will be difficult to prevent firearms, drugs, terrorists, sexual predators and hardened criminals from entering our country” said Jean-Pierre Fortin, National President, CIU.
