Stop Caterpillar Rally

Electro-Motive, a subsidiary of Caterpillar Inc. is demanding pay cuts of 50%, substantial cuts to benefits and pensions from the 500 workers at their London plant. The company has stated that without these cuts the plant will close. Profitable foreign owned corporations such as U.S. Steel and Carterpillar are capitalizing on a shaky economy, seriously lax labour laws and domestic investment regulations that are supposed to create a net benefit for Canada.

On Saturday 21st January there will be a rally at Victoria Park in London. The purpose of the rally is to show our support for these CAW members currently locked out from the Caterpillar Plant and the community that they live in. We are urging our members to attend this important rally and help stop this virus. We have booked a bus to drive to London, if you would like to join us please call the Union Hall 905-682-2611. The bus leaves at 8:15 and returns after the rally,lunch will be provided.
