As you are aware there is presently before the House of Commons a debate concerning the federal government's proposed back to work legislation concerning the CUPW / Canada Post dispute.  The executive is presently trying to get in touch with CUPW's lawyers and will be discussing the issue.  In the meantime, we have received correspondence from the CLC calling for messages to be sent in support of the CUPW.  I attach the link to take you to the website with President Georgetti's appeal to help support the NDP in its filibuster. 

Please visit the CLC website.

Thank you.

The CIRB has proposed changes to regulations that affect hearing and vote procedures.  Some of these might be significant to our clients.  [eg. ss 7, 11, 12.1, 21, 27, 28, 29, 36, 38].

Michael Cohen and Mary Mackinnon are part of a CIRB client consultation committee and have agreed to invite submissions from CALL before the end of June to be provided to the CIRB.
