Hastings Entertainment Inc.- Bargaining Update #22 – Strike Committee Meeting
March 9, 2018
To: All MoveUP Members at Hastings Entertainment Inc.
Please post and/or distribute in your workplace.
Your strike committee met on Tuesday, March 6, 2018 at the union office.
We are still receiving names for the positions of picket captain.
The committee has now developed the picket schedule and the number of hours you will be required to picket to receive picket pay.
Starting next week, it is the goal of the committee to start having members schedule what shift and hours they would prefer.
Please continue to update your information with the committee or contact our office.
Our external campaign has started. You can view the videos, get updates and leave messages of support on our Facebook group at
https://www.facebook.com/groups/NotSoGreatCanadian/
Share with your friends and families, we want everyone to let HastingsRaces and GRTCanadian know on Twitter that their workers deserve fair wages by using the hashtag #NotSoGreatCanadian. Don’t let Great Canadian exploit their employees.
Please remember to forward 12 weeks (six pay checks) of pay stubs to the union office. This is required to receive strike pay.
Please use this email for bargaining and strike communication.
Once we have more information, we will communicate with you.
In solidarity,
Brad Bastien, Senior Union Representative
Keith Parkinson, Bargaining Committee Member
Alina Teymory, Temporary Union Representative
