PSAC/CEIU local 20901 also made a donation to the CUPE local, and CUPE members on the line expressed their sincere appreciation for the effort and support.

Local President Robert Strang and other CEIU 20944 members also visited the Library Workers’ picket line - one of the CEIU members also works at the library - they brought flats of bottled water and donuts to the picketers.
BC Regional Council member Be Gomes set up a booth at Terrace’s Riverboat Days, where she handed out Public Services Are Cool! material and spoke to attendees about the value of our work.
Anita Hoffman, a steward at the Health Canada office in Victoria, successfully represented a member who felt her job was being threatened. Anita went to great lengths to resolve the matter and the member was very appreciative.
