In a memorandum circulated yesterday
to all Locals, the committee says that, if an election
is necessary, it will coincide with TNG/CWA elections.
As decided at the fall Representative Council meeting
in Halifax, election dates are to be set at the TNG
Sector Conference which opens Feb. 28 in Providence,
Rhode Island.
The committee, composed of Debbie Cole, Ray Rudersdorfer
and Jack Wilson, says it expects to issue the nominations
call in early March. If either CWA Canada leadership
position is contested, all members of the union are
eligible to vote.
CWA Canada's present Director is Arnold Amber; Martin
O'Hanlon is the Deputy Director. Effective Jan. 1,
2007, when the Canadian region of CWA officially came
into being, the Director position became a full-time,
salaried job.
