Please note: Three other locals are also conducting strike votes, but are using an electronic balloting system.

“Our members do not wish to strike,” said CUPE Alberta President Rory Gill. “But many feel they have no other option in the face of poverty level wages, shrinking classroom resources, and a provincial government that refuses to act.”
