Union News - December 2021
The National Equal Opportunities Committee is busy planning the Regional Conferences for 2022. UTE will hold 3 conferences across Canada this year. The dates and locations of the conferences are as follows:
- April 29-30, 2022 - Toronto - Greater Toronto, Southwestern Ontario, Northern and Eastern Ontario Regions
- May 13-14, 2022 - Vancouver - Pacific, Rocky Mountains and Prairie Regions
- June 17-18, 2022 - Halifax - National Capital, Quebec, Montreal and Atlantic Regions
The theme for these conferences is Coming Full Circle and will include many interesting and exciting workshops and dynamic guest speakers.
Each local will be entitled to send two (2) members with funding from the National Office. Locals will be able to send others at the local’s expense.
Your Equal Opportunities Committee is encouraging locals to send new activists and members who have an interest in becoming involved in workplace Employment Equity Committees. We would very much like to see many new faces at our conferences next year.
If you have an interest in Employment Equity and would like to attend one of the conferences in your region, please speak to someone on your local executive.
