Friends,

 

We are writing to tell you that we will be sending each of you two documents that will explain the proposed changes to your collective agreement. We hope to get those documents to you by the end of next week. If you do not receive those documents, please contact a member of your bargaining committee.

 

We are also writing to tell you that we have scheduled membership meetings for August 24 to provide each of you with an opportunity to ask questions before you vote. The vote will be held at August 24 at 312 Main and at your workplace on August 25 and 26. The ballots will be counted immediately after voting ends on August 26. You will be given the results the same day.
