Kim was an unwavering voice of rank and file members from her start on the shop floor at Safeway all the way to UFCW 1518 President. She never forgot her roots. And we will never forget her. 2/2 #bclab @UFCW_1518 @UFCWCanada

We heard of President UFCW1518 Kim Novak's passing today. Our local has been devastated by the news and we extend our deepest respects and love to her sons and her husband at this time. 1/2 #bcpoli

To imply that these very workers are responsible for increasing tax hikes is not only insensitive but patently false. 6/6 READ MORE

Rising interest rates, the pace of inflation, the cost of living, and yes, taxes have these workers struggling to make ends meet and to put nutritious food on the table for their families. 5/6

and grossly unfair. Our members, who provide the valuable services relied upon by the residents of Vancouver, are fairing no better than other workers across this country. 4/6

The unions representing workers (CUPE Local 15, Local 1004, Local 391, IBEW 213, IAFF 18, IATSE118 among others) at the City of Vancouver, Vancouver Park Board, and Vancouver Public Library Fire and Rescue and Civic Theaters believe these comments to be inflammatory ... 3/6

When questioned as to why Vancouver is seeing higher tax increases not seen in other municipalities you @george_affleck responded “I think Vancouver is burdened with a very significant workforce that is, expensive”. 2/6

Response to @george_affleck regarding tax increases: in response to comments made during an interview with Global news regarding the City of Vancouver budget outlook and the potential tax increases. 1/6

Have a safe and happy #CanadaDay, everyone, and thank you to our members working at facilities and parks that are being enjoyed by everyone. We appreciate you and all members every day! #vanpol

Included in this meeting will be a request that stakeholder input is needed, as per school act, it is also another concern we have with the process. 4/4

We hope this discussion will lead to that and there will be some relief for our members who, while aware of the problems, still know how important it is to keep our youth safe. 3/4 #vanpoli

Currently, our members working this position in these schools are at risk themselves, being untrained in this line of work, while they try to help youth also at risk. The situation needs more transparency and input from those working the frontlines.2/4 #vanpoli

In keeping with an election promise by @KenSimCity and @Vote4ABC on the reinstatement of school liaison officers in the @VSB39 district we look forward to a frank discussion with them later today on the future of these SLOs….1/4

Former @CUPElocal15 president @paulfaoro gets well deserved thanks from @CUPEBC ! 🙏👏👏✊

#BreakTheBias #IWD2022 to all the incredible women out there, we celebrate you today and every day!

Looking forward to working together for Vancouver.
