MONTREAL–Unifor will be holding a gathering to mark the 10th anniversary of the closure of MABE, after it filed for bankruptcy and workers lost their group insurance and life insurance and 22% of their pension.

“For the past 10 years, Unifor has stood by the retirees and former employees of MABE in their fight for respect and justice,” said Unifor Quebec Director Daniel Cloutier. “The employer has tried to wear them down, but they are a resilient group and they can count on Unifor’s unwavering support.” 

Date:                August 25, 2024

Time:               10:00 a.m.

Location:         5778 Notre-Dame Street East

Participants: Daniel Cloutier, Unifor Quebec Director, and several representatives of the retirees group whose appeal is currently before the courts.

Media representatives are invited to attend this event. There will be speeches by union leaders, followed by a march to the former MABE plant.
