In February, CUSW members presented CUSW to a group of new Canadian electricians graduating from Humber College’s bridging program. The program,  sponsored by Skills for Change and the Ministry of Citizenship and Immigration, helps new Canadians get certified with their (309A) and (442) Certificates of Qualification.  

CUSW has a long-standing partnership with Skills for Change, with many tradespeople eventually becoming CUSW Members.

Skills for Change is an organization that mentors and helps new Canadians find meaningful employment based on skills and experience from their home countries.

Did you know CUSW is governed by the Principles, Articles and Policies found in the Constitution? And Did you know that 2015 is a Convention Year?

That's right. Early next year, member Delegates will come together at the Convention and vote on some of the smallest and the largest issues affecting the Union – and ultimately form the basis of the 2015 Constitution.

In anticipation of this event, we've prepared a short and informative 5 minute video that details the history and relationship between the Convention, that comes every 3 years, and the Constitution.

Your CUSW Constitution and Convention go hand in hand. Here's how.

A message from the team of CUSW's own, Andrew Gresel on his 2014 Championship OSCAAR win.

Andrew Gresel came into the final event of 2014 with two things on his mind. The feature win on Sunday, and his first ever OSCAAR Super Late Model Championship. At the end of the fifty lap event he was able to cross both off is bucket list. Taking advantage of the pole position earned at the Chase for the Colours, the #81 would lead all 50 laps of the event. Andrew Gresel and team would like to thank CUSW and all members and those who came out to cheer on the CUSW Super Late Model at Peterborough speedway autumn colours championship.

See some great pics from Raceday Victory Lane on his Facebook page.
