Since the last update was posted on our site in May 2020, CEIU has held two meetings with the ESDC Labour Relations team on May 28 and July 2, 2020, to monitor how the public health situation is affecting file processing. Here are the highlights of these meetings:    

A Call for Nominations is being sent to fill the positions of two (2) Alternate NVP positions, as follows:

• Alternate NVP for Human Rights
• Alternate NVP for IRB (Immigration and Refugee Board)

Every year, National Public Service Week is an opportunity to recognize and celebrate the work of our members and colleagues who work in all departments and agencies of the federal government of Canada.

The Canada Employment and Immigration Union is pleased to be able to offer fifteen (15) $2,000.00 National Scholarships to CEIU members in good standing, their spouse, their common-law spouse (including same sex partners) and/or their dependant(s).

While there are still no definitive return to the office dates, CEIU has been meeting with our three departments regarding the topic of return to work plans.

The National Leadership of CEIU joins the chorus of voices in standing in solidarity with BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People Of Colour) at this time when we witness yet another escalation of activism denouncing yet another racist murder by police brutality on a black man in the United States; we are shocked and appalled at the murder of George Floyd by suffocation, in public and despite oppositions from the public and protests from medical professionals. This death is unacceptable.

The CEIU National Executive, at their May 13th, 2020 meeting, voted to postpone the CEIU National Triennial Convention to 2021. The CEIU Convention will now be held from August 16th to 20th, 2021, at the Hilton Lac Leamy Hotel in Gatineau, Québec.

The elections for CEIU’s Alternate NVP positions have concluded following a full week of electronic voting, beginning on April 29^th and ending on May 6^th, 2020.
