On November 28, CIU Local 019 in Sarnia held a rally at the Blue Water Bridge crossing both in support of the CIU bargaining teams and as a display of solidarity with our Sisters and Brothers from PSAC local 501 in their ongoing strike for a fair contract.
With megaphones, banners, and flags leading the way, all members in attendance marched united on the public property of the Bluewater Bridge, making sure to stop under the managerial offices of the Federal Bridge Corporation to make their voices heard loudly and clearly.
The rally provided Local 501 with renewed energy as they continue their fight for a fair contract without concessions. Thank you to all Sisters and Brothers from Sarnia and those who joined them, including Sarnia Branch President Brother Coene, CIU Youth Rep Sister Baert, Toronto Branch President Brother Sutcliffe, Fort Erie Branch President Brother VanHelvert, and Fort Erie 1st VP Brother Kontogianis. Great job!
