Calling all union members:

Register now for one of our free skills-building workshops and help ensure that retirement security, good jobs, child care and health care are priorities in the next federal election.

Get involved in your election. Vote, talk to your friends, family and co-workers, know the issues, volunteer on a campaign. There are many things individual Canadians can do to participate in an election and their actions will count more than ever in 2015.

For union members, the starting point is attending a CLC regional Election Preparation Conference. There are 16 events scheduled across the country in January and February 2015.

Our plan is to bring together seasoned campaigners and new activists from a wide range of communities and workplaces to share the experience they have while learning the latest and best practices for effective campaigning – from outreach and training to social media. Our goal is to show them how to take on the negative, powerful politics of greed and deliver a win for fairness.

Who should go?

The people in your union who can build, lead and deliver a winning campaign need to be at this conference – leaders, community campaigners, organizers and communicators; women and men, young and old; workers of colour, with disabilities, Aboriginal, LGBT; public sector and private sector; full-time, part-time or retired union members.
