The Collective Bargaining Meeting held on May 8th, at the new BMO Centre was a real eye opener to those in attendance. We were pleased to have Provincial ETFO's 1st Vice President - Susan Swackhammer, along with our Provincial ETFO Staff Officers - Mark Hachmer and Ruth Dawson, join us. Susan Swackhammer explained what has brought us to the point we are at today, going back to the January 2012 meeting with the Government and why ETFO stepped away from the table. This was a very informative meeting and your Local thanks those members who were in attendance last night. As a result, the membership has elected to accept the Preliminary Submission going forward in June.
On May 24th, we will be holding our Spring General Meeting and Banquet at the Best Western Lamplighter Inn, 591 Wellington Road, South, in London from 4:30 - 7:30 PM. Local Executive Positions will be announced along with a recap of the year's successes. The proposed budget for 2012-2013 will also presented for approval by the membership. Dinner buffet will begin at 5:00PM. RSVP required for meal at tvotpd@gmail.com/519-641-3936. This is always a popular event with a chance for camaraderie and a say in the priorities of the Local. Avoid disappointment and reserve your spot today. Win one of our many great door prizes.
