The goal of this effort was to communicate to the MNAs (Members of the National Assembly) of Quebec the importance of the issues and how they affect all Quebecers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The question of the adoption of a provincial aerospace strategy was also raised: https:\/\/www.iamaw.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/6Feb2019_IAM_Aerospace_Strategy_2018.pdf<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n The key issues are working in collaboration with governments to increase R&D spending, develop training programs and ensure that Quebec and Canada continue to be a key players in the world\u2019s aerospace sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I was part of a group of four union representatives from four unions\/sectors: Aerospace\/IAMAW, USW (United Steel Workers, who represent SEC in Trois-Rivieres and Drummondville), COPE (Canadian Office and Professional Employees union) and the SEIU (Service Employees International Union). We met with Claude Reid, MNA for Beauharnois, and Claire IsaBelle, MNA for Huntingdon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The subjects were met with openness and questions. Within the aerospace sector, a universal pharmacare program could alleviate the need for employer-funded medical benefits, which could in turn result in an incentive to invest\/remain in Quebec. This could also mean more leverage when negotiating a collective agreement, and potentially the hiring of more members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I invite all members to visit the links above for more detailed information.

Les principaux enjeux \u00e9taient les suivants :<\/p>\n\n\n\n 1. Cr\u00e9er un r\u00e9gime public et universel d’assurance-m\u00e9dicaments pour tous les Qu\u00e9b\u00e9cois;<\/p>\n\n\n\n 2. Am\u00e9liorer le syst\u00e8me de sant\u00e9 public et limiter les soins de sant\u00e9 priv\u00e9s ;<\/p>\n\n\n\n 3. Augmenter le salaire minimum \u00e0 18$\/heure;<\/p>\n\n\n\n 4. Assurer une transition juste et \u00e9quitable vers une \u00e9conomie verte.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Le but de cet effort \u00e9tait de communiquer aux d\u00e9put\u00e9s (membres de l’Assembl\u00e9e nationale) du Qu\u00e9bec l’importance des enjeux et comment ils affectent tous les Qu\u00e9b\u00e9cois.<\/p>\n\n\n\n La question de l’adoption d’une strat\u00e9gie a\u00e9rospatiale provinciale a \u00e9galement \u00e9t\u00e9 soulev\u00e9e : https:\/\/www.iamaw.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/6Feb2019_IAM_Aerospace_Strategy_2018.pdf<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Les enjeux cl\u00e9s sont de travailler en collaboration avec les gouvernements pour augmenter les d\u00e9penses en R&D, d\u00e9velopper des programmes de formation et s’assurer que le Qu\u00e9bec et le Canada continuent d’\u00eatre des acteurs incontournables du secteur a\u00e9rospatial mondial.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Je faisais partie d’un groupe de quatre repr\u00e9sentants syndicaux de quatre syndicats\/secteurs : A\u00e9ronautique\/AIMTA, M\u00e9tallos (United Steel Workers, qui repr\u00e9sentent SEC \u00e0 Trois-Rivi\u00e8res et Drummondville), SEPB-Qu\u00e9bec (Syndicat des employ\u00e9s professionnels et de bureau) et UEIS (Union des employ\u00e9s et employ\u00e9es de service). Nous avons rencontr\u00e9 Claude Reid, d\u00e9put\u00e9 de Beauharnois, et Claire IsaBelle, d\u00e9put\u00e9e de Huntingdon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Les sujets ont \u00e9t\u00e9 accueillis avec ouverture et questions. Dans le secteur de l’a\u00e9rospatiale, un programme universel d’assurance-m\u00e9dicaments pourrait att\u00e9nuer le besoin de prestations m\u00e9dicales financ\u00e9es par l’employeur, ce qui pourrait \u00e0 son tour entra\u00eener une incitation \u00e0 investir\/rester au Qu\u00e9bec. Cela pourrait \u00e9galement signifier plus de poids lors de la n\u00e9gociation d’une convention collective, et potentiellement l’embauche de plus de membres.<\/p>\n\n\n\n J’invite tous les membres \u00e0 visiter les liens ci-dessus pour des informations plus d\u00e9taill\u00e9es.
