EDMONTON – The Alberta Union of Provincial Employees will host
a huge barbecue on Monday, June 16, for general support services workers
and other employees of the University of Alberta Hospital.
More than 2,000 people are expected to attend throughout the day.
The barbecue is part of a series of AUPE events across the province
designed to give AUPE members the opportunity to tell health care workers
about the benefits of membership in Alberta’s largest and most
effective union, and to encourage them to vote for AUPE as their union
in the runoff votes required by Bill 27, the government’s legislation
that restructures labour relations in Alberta’s nine health regions.
AUPE is serving Alberta beef at its barbecues to show its solidarity
with Alberta’s beef industry.
Media are welcome to attend.
The barbecue will take place from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. and from 5
p.m. to 6:30 p.m. near the 112th Street entrance of the U of A Hospital.
