It's time Gary Russel stands up and puts an end to this nonsense. Hello GARY???
There must be a clause in the Constitution that allows action and Membership interest protection against democratic subversion. Isn't there some form of "non-confidence motion" that would trigger elections? I promise you there is no better time, as confidence in our representation is at ZERO.
There is NO WAY anything is getting done until this is solved, which effectively nullifies my representation.
What are the Memberships rights in all this??? I DEMAND A FULL RECALL AND VOTE.
ACPA is literally imploding, and we are all still paying dues to --fully displace-- these traitors.
It’s ACPA.
Direction and control is vested with the membership.
That line is just a fallacy. Proof. Just try and exercise that direction and control. Look what happened in April. Look what just happened now.
I don’t think there is anything the MEC Chair can do. Even though the recall was 68% in favour, it didn’t meet the absolute majority required. The recall failed.
That means it is completely up to the two of them, as to how they response. Resign, ignore it, or look in the mirror and change behaviour.
They chose ignore it. And then took action to silence everything.
The only thing we can do is change the constitution to a simple majority and then recall again. There is no other mechanism.
Time consuming. A recall stops all union business including the unity initiative. What’s more important? Union change or two guys in VR?
In fact them staying will probably drive fence sitters toward union change.
In the mean time I suggest we just ignore them. Apparently there is a way to get off base representation if you want. Talk to a councillor
