Coast Mountain Bus – Bargaining Committee Elections


April 4, 2023

To: All MoveUP members at Coast Mountain Bus


Your union has been working very hard to prepare the bargaining committee election.  We have been trying to find a fair way to conduct the election as it is obviously not practical to have a representative from every department at the bargaining table.  We considered several factors in working to present a fair election process that will enable the committee to have as much insight across the membership as possible.

Accordingly, we have created five constituencies across CMBC:

  • Customer Information (including Lost Property and Accounting Clerks)
  • Security
  • Operations (including Community Shuttle Clerks, Depot Assistants, Maintenance Clerks, Fleet Maintenance Assistants, Garage Maintenance Planners and Clerical Staff)
  • Training
  • Miscellaneous (all other departments not listed above)

Job Stewards from the above departments are eligible to run in their respective departments and each member will be entitled to vote for one of the candidates in their departments.  All voting will be done online.

Any Job Steward interested in serving on the bargaining committee must submit their name and department to Lisa Jeffery by 4:30 on Thursday April 6th in order to be placed on the ballot.  Once we have determined the departments where there are multiple candidates for the same position we will conduct elections for each department.

Thank you to those members who took the time to submit bargaining surveys.

In Solidarity,

Shawn Lakusta, Union Representative
Andrew Cheverie, Union Representative
Christy Slusarenko, VP of Combined Units
