Sisters and Brothers,
This Thanksgiving, we recognize our members, Local Union leaders, volunteers and staff who contribute to the strength of the IBEW. We also thank the families who support our members throughout the year.
Across Canada, IBEW members continue to make a difference each and every day. From building and maintaining critical infrastructure to powering our communities, their work helps keep our great nation moving forward.
As we gather this weekend, let’s also remember those who will spend the holiday on the job and those in our communities who may need a helping hand.
Thank you for your hard work, your commitment to one another and everything you do for the IBEW.
On behalf of all First District staff, I wish you and your loved ones a safe and happy Thanksgiving.
In Solidarity,
