Labour Unites Us. Solidarity Defines Us- CCU Shawn Campbell CUSW - Episode #31

𝗦𝗵𝗮𝘄𝗻 𝗖𝗮𝗺𝗽𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗹 is back on the 𝗖𝗨𝗦𝗪 𝗦𝗽𝗼𝘁𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝗣𝗼𝗱𝗰𝗮𝘀𝘁, and this time there is a lot more to talk about.Since his first appearance on the podcast, Shawn has taken on a new role as President of the 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗳𝗲𝗱𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗼𝗳 𝗖𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗱𝗶𝗮𝗻 𝗨𝗻𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 (𝗖𝗖𝗨) while continuing to support CUSW's growth and development.The conversation looks at what brings independent Canadian unions from very different industries together, the history behind the CCU, and why Canadian workers having a voice in their own labour movement can make a difference. Shawn and Dan also talk about the relationship between CUSW and the CCU, and the work being done to support members through training and education. They also discuss the pressures workers face, from the rising cost of living to challenges affecting communities across Canada.For Shawn, being part of the labour movement isn't something separate from being a tradesperson. He brings the perspective of someone who has spent his career on the tools and now has the opportunity to help shape a bigger conversation about workers across Canada.𝗔 𝗴𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝘄𝗲'𝘃𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺, 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝘄𝗲'𝗿𝗲 𝗴𝗼𝗶𝗻𝗴, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘄𝗲 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗱𝗼 𝘁𝗼𝗴𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿.Resources mentioned in this episode:𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗳𝗲𝗱𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗼𝗳 𝗖𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗱𝗶𝗮𝗻 𝗨𝗻𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 (𝗖𝗖𝗨):https://ccu-csc.ca/𝗖𝗖𝗨 𝗡𝗲𝘄𝘀 𝗠𝗮𝗴𝗮𝘇𝗶𝗻𝗲:https://ccu-csc.ca/news/newsmagazine/Want to connect with Shawn or learn more?  Feel free to reach out to him directly at 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁@𝗰𝗰𝘂-𝗰𝘀𝗰.𝗰𝗮Don’t forget to visit www.cusw.ca to explore more opportunities and resources.
