Local 039 to Support Monterey Place in Calgary

Monterey Place members will be on the picket line from 06:30- 18:30 daily, 7 days a week.

Below is a communication received today from AUPE Headquarters. For more information on this Calgary facility please visit Monterey Place Locked Out.

We, as members of Local 039 can offer our support to these AUPE members through any number of different ways. I will be posting updates to my blog with suggestions on how we can contribute.

Join fellow Local 39 members on the picket line
or just come out and show your support
between 14:00-16:00 (2:00-4:00 PM) this Sunday, July 1, 2012.

===================================================

Please support AUPE members at Monterey Place

AUPE has always shown our strength and supported each other in times of struggle. This is one of those times.

On June 26, Triple A Living Communities locked out 90 AUPE members at Monterey Place in Calgary. Triple A would rather lock out their staff than pay the industry-standard wages the government funds them to pay, with your tax dollars.

Please show your support for the staff locked out at Monterey Place, and your AUPE pride, by coming to the picket line and encouraging other members from your worksite, chapter and local to do so as well.

These brave AUPE members need all our support!

Visit the picket line at:

4288 Catalina Boulevard N.E.
6:00 am - 6:00 pm, seven days a week

Please also visit our new website www.stoptheripoff.ca to send Premier Redford a letter asking her to take action and protect the quality of seniors care.
