NATIONAL AND REGIONAL CUPE LEADERS STAND IN SOLIDARITY WITH PEI WORKERS

On August 09, 2025, CUPE National Secretary-Treasurer Candace Rennick and CUPE National President Mark Hancock visited Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island to show national support for local workers, their families, and the broader community. Their presence brought a message of solidarity from CUPE’s more than 770,000 members across Canada, underscoring the importance of collective action and unity in the face of ongoing challenges.

Representatives from several Atlantic CUPE divisions were also in attendance, including Ashley Clark (CUPE PEI), Iris Lloyd (CUPE NS), Sherry Hillier (CUPE Newfoundland and Labrador), and Alan Linkletter (CUPE NB). Each brought remarks on behalf of their respective divisions and expressed continued support through both advocacy and financial contributions.

From New Brunswick, Will Thibodeau, President of Local 1253, transported the CUPE NB RV to the event. He was joined by Chris Curran (President, Local 1251), Jamie Agnew (President, Local 963), Kathy Wilkins, and Bob Keays, all of whom participated to show regional solidarity.

The event served as a powerful demonstration of the strength and unity within the CUPE network across Atlantic Canada and the country as a whole.
