Team Unite includes the following candidates:
• Bea Bruske for CLC President;
• Lily Chang for CLC Secretary-Treasurer; and
• Siobhan Vipond for CLC Executive Vice-President.
CUPE locals are encouraged to register delegates for the virtual CLC convention and to support the election of Team Unite and important constitutional amendments put forward by CUPE.
