CUPE is Canada’s largest progressive force — fighting every day for better wages, stronger public services, and a future that puts people before profit. Stay connected. Be part of what comes next.  

From classrooms to long-term care homes, city streets to hospital wards, CUPE members are the heartbeat of our communities. 

We’ve stood together to defend public services, win better wages, and stop privatization in its tracks. And we’ve won, time and time again, in bargaining rooms, on picket lines, and in our communities.  

Now we’re bringing that momentum together — to build a stronger, more connected movement of CUPE members and allies ready to rise up, speak out, and take action for public services and workers’ rights.  

And we’re building it not a moment too soon. 

Employers, corporations, politicians are teaming up to undermine collective bargaining and workers’ rights. We’ve seen it happen — workers exercising their right to strike, only to be forced back to work by legislation.  

CUPE is pushing back. We are fighting for fair wages that keep up with the cost of living, safe working conditions that ensure workers return home to their family, and a labour movement strong enough to stand up to the powerful few. 

Join us.  

Building power, together | Canadian Union of Public Employees

This festive season let’s celebrate the efforts of the working people of the province, who are united to improve and provide the public services we all enjoy. Seasons greeting and best wishes for the new year, from CUPE New-Brunswick.

The right to strike is supposed to be protected in Canada. But Section 107 of the Canada Labour Code gives the government the power to suspend that right, tipping the scales in favour of corporations, behind closed doors, with no accountability. 

That’s exactly what happened during the recent CUPE flight attendants’ strike. Air Canada counted on the government to silence workers, and they used Section 107 to do it. 

Now, we have a chance to stop that from ever happening again. 

Bill C-247, introduced by NDP MP Don Davies, would repeal Section 107 for good. 

Send a letter to your MP urging them to support Bill C-247, and defend the right to strike.
