Program Title: CUPW Organizing Dynamex Edmonton
Description: Differences in workplace conditions between unionized and non-unionized job sites is well documented.

Dynamex is a large courier company with multiple outlets throughout Canada, and CJSR Correspondent Aaron Chubb spoke to Rashpal Sehmby and Andrew Gillespie, two organizers with CUPW on the differences between Winnipeg’s unionized shop and Edmonton’s, which is only represented by a Driver’s Association.
