BY-LAW AMENDMENT UPDATE
On November 8, 2024, ballots were sent out to members on a proposed by-law amendment, regarding Article 7, Section 8: Working Rules: Add new language to restrict members employed as a Head of Department ("HOD") or in a supervisory role within the bargaining unit from working on multiple productions at the same time without advance approval from the Senior Steward.
Though 30 days were allowed for ballot return, the finalized results were delayed due to the Canada Post strike, thus affecting those who mailed in paper ballots. The Teller's Report was posted on the website right away, but unfortunately was not posted in the eBulletin at the time. We apologize for any confusion this has caused. You can view the finalized results here. The by-law amendment did not pass, attaining a 65.1% "yes" vote. A two-thirds majority (66.7%) is required to pass amendment ballots.
