Family day

For a majority of us and our families, who were excluded from TWU Local 100 Family Day due to the fact that we are not buddies of Samuelsen’s TBOU. Now you know that Samuelsen has total disregard for you and your family. He only cares about his chums and himself.

If Samuelsen found it easy to exclude you from the family day then he is indirectly telling you that he could care less about you.This is what TWU Local 100 is coming to! Under Samuelsen there is no sense of unity. Samuelsen has clearly revealed that he is playing favorites to his buddies and giving them preferential treatment. This creates a separate and not always equal union because we don’t get any respect.

This feeling of disassociation was brought to the fore this year by Samuelsen. He favors his buddies because they are the only ones who were invited to family day but not everyone else in the rank and file. Do not feel a sense of despair in this TWU Local 100 like you have no power and no voice. You do have power and you do have a voice to keep this Samuelsen out in the future.

Samuelsen wants you to believe that TWU Local 100 is no longer your union. However it is everybody’s union and everyone is entitled to equal participation in all union activities. Nothing should be restricted to Samuelsen and his click.

Maybe Samuelsen chooses to believe that you do not exist. However when you vote for your next president you must not forget the TBOU phony and fake rhetorics ‘As a group, we seek accountability and transparency in all major decisions that affect the membership, and union democracy overall.’ Simply you do not count, we here in ‘why did you join the union’ consider there should be no line of separation and we want to crush any separation Samuelsen has created. Your voice and say matters and you will be included as one big union which is the way it should be at the TWU Local 100!
