Dear Members,  
  

We are writing to update you on the ongoing situation regarding the impending strike by pilots at Encore.  

Currently, the Encore ALPA Pilots are holding a vote to strike and this has been communicated on their socials. For further information on the entire process, please visit: Collective Bargaining - Canada.ca.  

We understand the uncertainty and anxiety that this situation causes for each one of you, and we share in this with you and are eager for beneficial outcome for all involved. It's important to familiarize yourself with the sections of the Collective agreement that cover possible strike action by another group: 47- LAYOFF AND RECALL. Also, be aware of the sections that pertain to reassignment to duty as these scenarios are fluid and may begin as IROP situation.   

While we remain optimistic for a resolution without any disruption to our operations, it is essential to be prepared for any potential scenario. We want to ensure that you have the necessary information and support during this uncertain time.   

We are committed to keeping you informed and updated as the situation unfolds. Please monitor your email for the latest information.  If you are working with a fellow CCM who has not signed up for emails, please have them sign up here or on our website home page for website access.
