Union hecause of
statements made by its
operations manager,
Bill Sorenson, while
serving as an alderman
on North Vancouver
City Council.

Employees’ Union is
foltowing the example of
local 389 of the Canadian
Union of Public Em-
ployees and 1s pulling its
account with the credit
union because it claims
Sorenson is anti-unton.

And HEU unt chairman
Clarke Gardner predicts it
might well end uP as just
part of a general boycott
against the credit umion by
trade unions.

“T would think there will
be repercussions along the
line from other umions and
associalions,” he says

But credit’ union general
manager Ron Davies says he
will stand behind the mght of
tus employees to speak their
nmunds while tn public office
even af he doesn't always
apree with what they say

And though about six
other unions have accounts
with the credit umonhe says
he will not take any action
against Sorenson even af
they all pull out

“TL think we could weathes
the storm financially "he
says “Tt would be an an
noyance but we have $)50
milion on depost and |
dont think we would sultfer
financially
