“It’s about fairness”: As strike deadline looms, County of Simcoe urged to negotiate a fair deal for CUPE 5820 members
Cornwall CUPE locals 234, 3251-01 and 5734, representing outside workers, library workers, and paramedics, started strike action on May 17th. On May 23rd, if no deal has been reached, they’ll be joined on the picket line by inside workers, represented by CUPE Local 3251.
Sign the petition below to help them get their employer back to the table by urging Cornwall Mayor and City Councillors to end this strike by negotiating a fair deal.
Dear Mayor O’Shaughnessy and City Councillors,
We are writing to urge you to send your negotiators back to the table to find a fair deal for Cornwall city workers. This strike won’t end until you do.
Every day in Cornwall, CUPE members deliver the high quality public services the community relies on. Please do your part to get these workers back on the job and settle a fair deal now – it’s your responsibility.
I stand in solidarity with Cornwall city workers.
