Sisters, Brothers and Siblings:
It is hard to believe that the violence that happened at the Ecole Polytechnique in Montreal happened 34 years ago, 14 Women were murdered on this day in Montreal because they were Women. It was a horrific event that we will never forget.
This date is also a time for us to reaffirm our commitment to fight against hatred and misogyny that led to this terrible tragedy.
On this day and every day we must support our Women and learn from our past, listening to survivors and speaking out against harmful behavior.
Our Union is committed to Women’s issues and have created committee’s and harassment Policies in our National Constitution and Local Bylaws. We take this seriously and read the policy before the start of every meeting.
In Solidarity,
Mark Lubinski,

Sisters, Brothers, Siblings:
The demands the corporation has put in for Variable Work Week, No Route Ownership, Permanent Flexible Employee’s and major restructuring of letter carrier work are pathetic.
It is time to get ready to stand up in Solidarity and fight! The Toronto Local is strongly opposed to management’s shenanigans and are preparing to battle. Feet on the street is the only way to win with this employer, the longer the line the shorter the strike. We need to stop attacking each other and focus on attacking the boss.
