On January 9, we filed membership cards with the Canada Industrial Review Board. This week, we wanted to share a brief explanation of the certification process.

Today we filed our membership cards with the Canada Industrial Relations Board (CIRB). This demonstrates that a strong majority of our pilots seek trade union representation.

Have you signed a card yet? This is your opportunity to show that you support joining a certified union under the Canada Labour Code to represent your interests as a professional airline pilot.

For the past year, members of the Air Creebec Organizing Committee (OC) set out to explore certifying our pilot group with the Air Line Pilots Association, International (ALPA). We spent time talking to you, discussing the issues we face, and identifying your interest in joining ALPA.
