Statement: PM Trudeau resignation – CAPE calls for a prudent transition that upholds a strong federal public sector
Following Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s resignation announcement, CAPE thanks him for his service and acknowledges that his leadership paved the way for progressive programs that improved the lives of Canadians in the last decade. CAPE also applauds his government’s effort to rebuild the federal workforce – following years of cutbacks – to restore it to a level that could better meet the needs and expectations of all Canadians.
New Treasury Board president: looking forward to new leadership
The Canadian Association of Professional Employees (CAPE) welcomes Minister Ginette Petitpas Taylor as the new Treasury Board president. We look forward to building a robust relationship with President Petitpas Taylor to address some key issues for our members, including the failed return-to-office mandate, the injury crisis affecting Parliamentary interpreters, and ongoing Phoenix payment issues that continue to affect thousands of workers. Addressing the needs of Black and Indigenous workers – and workers from other equity-deserving groups – for more inclusive and equitable workplaces also remains a top CAPE priority.
