Today, we celebrate the power of kindness and it’s ability to create positive change in our communities.

Together, we can build a culture of kindness that strengthens our local and inpires everyone else around us.

Let’s take a moment to spread some compassion and uplift each other.

Not just today, but every day!

All delegates who have attended any education, conference, or training session, must complete a Delegate Report.

This is in accordance to our by-laws, section 12.6, as stated below:

12.6 All delegates to education, seminars, conferences, conventions, jurisdictional or leadership meetings must submit a written report to the Secretary of the Executive Board, and where applicable, the Chairperson of the respective committee no later than three (3) weeks following attendance at said education, seminar, conference, convention, jurisdictional or leadership meetings. In the event that you have not submitted your report within the 3 weeks, then the Secretary will send you an email reminding you to submit your report and allow you a one (1) week extension. In the event that you do not submit your delegates report, you would lose privileges for 30 days, following the submission of your report, of any upcoming training or conferences. By not complying to these guidelines, an Executive member may ask you to provide a response to members questions about your failure to submit your delegates report. Copies of all delegates’ reports will be available at the next General Membership Meeting.  

It is important to note that if you have exceeded the allotted 4 weeks, without submitting your delegate report, you will be unable to attend any future
training, education, or conferences 30 days from the date of your report submission.

Please see below for the PDF of the form, which can be printed, filled out, and sent to the Recording Secretary at secretarycupe4222@gmail.com.

On Thursday, July 11th, a few of your Local Executive members went out to support LCBO workers, who are currently on strike.

As a reminder, there is a rally taking place tomorrow, Thursday July 18th, from 11 am – 4 pm, at the LCBO on Wellington & Bradley, in London.

If you’re able to, please try to get out there and show your support.

As we draw closer to the end of this day, we want to take this time to say THANK YOU for all of your hard work, dedication, flexibility and patience!

We know the past few years have been really hard and this year was extremely difficult on so many levels for each and every single one of us. So with that, we would like to wish our 10-month members a happy Summer and we hope that our 12-month members are able to take some vacation to relax and unwind.

Your Executive members are still working and available for you if the need arises. However, while many of us Executive are 12-months, there are still a few that are 10-months, so please be mindful of that if and when you are trying to reach us.
