Greetings,
At Unifor’s Canadian Council, delegates overwhelmingly voted in support of our union participating in a national campaign to push the federal government to include pharmacare as part of the 2018 budget.
Attached here you will find a letter to all local unions, staff and retiree chapters about Unifor’s efforts, a joint union-employer letter that we are asking locals to have employers sign onto, as well as a draft motion that locals can take to their city council to have them pass. Please note that we will be keeping a running tally of our successes so be sure to get in touch.
You can also download the pdfs at our campaign web page: http://www.unifor.org/en/take-action/campaigns/universal-pharmacare
For Word versions of any of these documents, please contact the Communications Department at Communications@unifor.org
Thank you in advance for your participation in this crucial initiative.
In solidarity
Jerry Dias
