Voting Information

The elections for all positions will be conducted using secure electronic voting. You will receive an email with a link to vote online and your unique voting credential on February 24, 2025 at 5PM.

Please add emails from [email protected] to your approved senders list with your email provider so that your voting credential isn't directed to junk mail/ spam folder.

Voting will open on Monday, February 24, 2025 at 5 PM and will close on Monday, March 3, 2025 at 3 PM. Please participate and vote. This is the only method for casting a ballot.

If you don't receive a voting credential (likely because the BCGEU does not have your personal email address), or you experience problems casting your vote, please contact the BCGEU Negotiations Department at [email protected] or by calling 604-291-9611 or toll-free 1-800-663-1674, ASAP after voting opens and by no later than Friday, February 28, 2025 at 4:00 PM. This will allow enough time for problems to be addressed before voting closes. Note that phone support is available only during regular BCGEU office hours.

A member without a personal email address may request the assistance of a steward or fellow member to help set one up.

In solidarity,

Brent Camilleri

Staff Representative - Negotiations
