    CKLN staff move to impeach board of directors

    Fighting Words

    Apparently there is another meeting being held this Saturday.

    If anyone has any other links or documents (or opinions) that they feel should be made public please send them along.

    Update:The following was sent to me. Apparantly it was read at the meeting held last week to impeach the board.

    CUPE Local 1281, on behalf of the staff members at CKLN, would like to make the following statement:

    We are currently at the bargaining table attempting to reach the firstcollective agreement with the board of this newly unionized workplace.During the last several months, members of the bargaining unit have played a leadership role in the political activity surrounding this meeting, and its planning. This activity was not appropriate, and the Union on behalf of CKLN staff apologizes for the impact this has had on the bargaining process, CKLN Radio Inc. and its board of directors. It is our position that the actions being discussed at this meeting will not help, but will in fact hinder, the ability of the parties to reach a fair and just settlement for the members of this newly organized bargaining unit. The union and the staff ask that you take all of this into consideration and cancel the meeting.
