TO: All Labourers' International Union of North America

All Local Unions and District Councils

Dear Sir & Brother,

We believe that you should be made aware of certain facts affecting your International Union.

At the last Canadian Building Trades Convention held in Vancouver on June 3rd to 5th, 1998, a resolution was overwhelmingly adopted (only one vote against it) requesting the governing body of the Building Trades Department to expel the Labourers International Union of North America unless certain steps are taken by LIUNA to rectify a most ugly situation in Toronto and the province of Ontario.

Enclosed you will find a copy of the resolution adopted by the Convention. We are also enclosing information which was distributed to the delegates of the convention.

Fraternally,

Mitch Griffiths-President
