Presidents January 2025 Message (3/12/2025)Hello everyone,
Happy New year to you all.
For those of you that do not know, my name is Barry Joyce. I was elected as Union President in a later than usual December election and started on January 2nd.
I just want to give the membership a brief overview of what is happening in CUPE 5791 currently.
We are working on elections for our executive officers and Committee members which will be coming up on February 5th. This vote usually takes place during the November meeting, so we are playing a bit of catch up here. The February agenda along with the positions to be filled were sent out. Further details about the meeting will be sent out before the meeting.
We are in discussions to change our general meetings to Hybrid (online and in person) as this is needed for our union. This will allow for more inclusion from all our groups who cannot attend in person meetings, however this will take time as it requires a bylaw change.
This brings me to our bylaws, they are in need of updating, including the online meetings as they have been the same since 2014, our board are meeting soon, with our CUPE National Rep, to discuss this and get the ball rolling to finish what was started in 2022 and add what we need to bring it up to date.
Our Think Tank (budget meeting) which usually happens in December , will be happening in mid February and we will present our budget at the March general membership meeting. The meeting is a little late this year as our Treasurer is away for all of January, she is a key member during the Think tank meeting, therefore we cannot have the meeting any sooner.
I want to point out our Treasurers holidays were booked ahead of time; she had no idea we would be in this position in January, and she has completed work for the union on holidays.
This covers the key points of what we are working on for now,
Please come and vote if you can at our elections.
Regards,
Barry Joyce,
Union President,
CUPE 5791

President’s Message March 2022 (4/26/2022)As we head into spring, I would like to give a long-overdue message to all our dedicated members. Two years ago, all our lives stopped and were turned upside down by COVID. As we fight to get back to a normal schedule and way of life, there have been and continue to be, many challenges and obstacles.
As a CUPE 5791 members you have all done an amazing job at keeping your respective workplaces running smoothly and efficiently and you should all be very proud. It has not been easy and we continue to sacrifice day in and day out to get our jobs done.
Going into April we will be bargaining for Chartwells, then the UofR CUPE 5791 Contract, then Mackenzie Art Gallery, followed by the First Nations University of Canada and the CUPE 5791 Researchers group in early 2023. These contracts are not to be taken lightly, and I will work tirelessly to get a fair and equitable agreement for each contract.
If you are new to the CUPE 5791 Family, Welcome. We are so happy to have you join us. Please join us at our meetings and introduce yourselves. I will continue to work to keep things moving forward in a direction that will help us all feel valued and respected in our workplaces.
In Solidarity,
Shane Belter
