- Eleven members are slated to be rolled-over as per the recent job posting. These are all being done as per Appendix 24 of the C.A. and do not involve transfers.
- There is a new HPro3 protocol being implemented that mirrors the demands that we forwarded after the voluntary overtime withdrawal. Please take the time to read and use the new version. It is an important agreement for all C.O.'s and is closer to the HPro2 we currently use.
- I am forwarding our condolences to the family and co-workers of Curt Bishop, a C.O. at the Algoma Treatment and Remand Centre, and, the co-chair of the Provincial Joint Health and Safety Committee for the worker side. Curt and I worked side by side on the committee. He was a a great help and ally and wanted to understand our issues at the superjails. He was warm and jovial and welcomed me as a team member from the start. I will miss him.
- Some members are asking me about elections two months after the fact, and, sincerely, I am stunned that this issue is still out there. There is no plan to hold elections again and OPSEU has confirmed with me that there is no issue regarding the way the election took place or the results. They are not coming to hold them over and are satisfied with the way we conducted our elections.
- Canada Day came and went and I hope you and your family enjoyed the day!
Once again, I hope to have more news for you as time and space permits. Take it EZ.
In solidarity, Emidio.

Emidio,
There is a lot of talk regarding the "roll-overs" actually being Competitions, as the appearance of the posting might indicate, most certainly at first glance. Is it true that Seniority will dictate the filling of the vacancies or will there in fact be an actual Competition?
Thanks and keep the postings coming .... it's nice to feel like one is "in the loop," so to speak.
Your time and efforts are appreciated!
Shep
