A big thank you to everyone who joined us for our One Union, One Family, One Fight Building Union Power training!

It was inspiring to see members come together to reconnect, share ideas, and talk about how we can continue building a stronger, more united Union. This campaign is about standing together, supporting one another, and ensuring we continue fighting for better wages, safer working conditions, and stronger contracts for all members.

Be on the lookout for upcoming Building Union Power campaign meetings and events happening with DC38. We’ll be announcing more dates soon, so don’t miss your chance to get involved, sign the pledge, and help build the future of our union. We’re just getting started, let’s keep building momentum and union power together.

One Union. One Family. One Fight. Together, we build Union Power.

DC38 proudly kicked off the first “One Union, One Family, One Fight – Building Union Power” campaign in BC. This campaign is about reconnecting our membership, rebuilding solidarity, and strengthening the collective power that generations of union members fought to achieve. Through education, engagement, and action, we are recommitting ourselves to the values that make our union strong: unity, democracy, and fighting for better wages, safer working conditions, and stronger contracts for every member.

We were proud to join General Vice President Simon Hazelwood and IUPAT leadership in launching this important movement to inspire the next generation of activists and re-engage our members from the ground up. When we stand together as ONE UNION and ONE FAMILY, there is no fight we cannot take on and WIN.

Be on the lookout for upcoming Union Power campaign meetings and events happening with DC38. We’ll be announcing dates soon, so don’t miss your chance to get involved, sign the pledge, and help build the future of our union. This movement belongs to all of us.

We’re just getting started, let’s keep building momentum and union power together.
