lodged with the Labor
Relations Board following
the layoffs.

Last week, two of the

for next month. In addition
to the direct appeals planned
for the local Chamber of
Commerce, businesses and
associations, the House will

the RCMP fashion show,
teen and adult dances, a
raffle, an aerob-o-thon,
seniors’ activities, and a
children’s festival.

Sabourin said the union’s
distribution of the flyer will

not comment further but
added the Board of Direc-

tors would be issuing a
written response in the form
of a press release
Wednesday.

No SORWUC officials
could be reached by the

comment to deadline.
