June 20th marks the anniversary of the founding of COPE as an autonomous Canadian union.
It was on this day 20 years ago that the Canadian Office and Professional Employees Union became a union in its own right, the leadership of the time deciding it was time to part company with a U.S. based organization.
COPE is a proud Canadian union with members from coast to coast.
We’ve accomplished a lot in the last two decades on behalf of workers across the country, and there is lots more to do. Here’s to the next 20 years!
