The Pipe Line Contractors’ Association of Canada (PLCAC) has filed a petition with the Federal Government in an effort to resume conversations about the Energy East Pipeline, originally cancelled in 2017, and make its construction a national priority.

LIUNA Has been a promotor of safe pipelines for years and are strong supporters of ethically produced oil. This is a critical time in the pipeline industry with the cancellations of the Keystone XL pipeline and threats of cancellations of Enbridge’s Lines 3 and 5.

Resurrecting Energy East would allow Canadian oil to be exported safely to Europe and Asia and would create thousands of high-quality jobs for our members.

Show your support by adding your signature before the petition closes on April 2, 2021 at this link

In solidarity,

On April 13, 2017, the Union filed a grievance on behalf of all affected members against Distinct Tech and iVAC Services (collectively, the “Employers”) alleging that the Employers had violated the Utilities Collective Agreement by incorrectly applying the Appendix 1, Article 7 compensation rates for work that should have properly been classified and compensated under the Appendix 1, Article 1 rates(the “Grievance”). The Grievance covers the period of January 1, 2016 to September 23, 2018 (the “Relevant Period”). The Grievance has been resolved and the Union has $355,505.26 available for distribution to the affected members. Notice has been sent to all affected members based on the mailing address on file with the Union. If you worked for either of the Employers during the Relevant Period but did not receive a letter relating to this settlement, please contact your union representative or the Sector Coordinator, Rob Tamburini at rtamburini@liuna183.ca.
