We oppose using CAPE’s limited time, money and energy for non-workplace political campaigns. Bargaining, job security, working conditions and representation must come first. Members United promises continuity with M4C. We want a different direction.
3,783 members voted for a workplace-focused mandate. The NEC recommended voting against it. Members chose the opposite direction by more than five votes to one.

The NEC opposed limiting CAPE’s concerns to employment and the employer relationship. Our position: union time and energy belong on the issues members face at work.
See the recordThe NEC backed a pension-divestment campaign estimated at $250,000, alongside foreign-policy advocacy. We oppose that use of union resources.
See the recordThe NEC opposed stronger disclosure for resolutions costing $500 or more or likely to increase dues. Members deserve the price tag before they vote.

“My comments on Reddit were posted to a personal account and reflect my personal beliefs. I was not speaking as the President of the Canadian Association of Professional Employees.”
The National Post reported on a complaint about Prier’s social-media conduct. Excerpts describe allegations that he used an anonymous Reddit account to appear to be an independent supporter of his own posts and harassed and defamed Jewish CAPE members.
