Last week, Millwright Local 1410 was proud to stand alongside our members working for Laframboise on the Goodyear Napanee Expansion Project in recognition of Truth and Reconciliation.

As union members and as members of our communities, we recognize the importance of taking time to listen, learn, reflect, and acknowledge the lasting impacts of the residential school system on Indigenous Peoples, families, and communities.

Wearing orange is a visible sign of support, but reconciliation goes beyond one day. It is an ongoing commitment to learning from the past, building understanding, and moving forward together with respect.

We are proud of our Local 1410 members for standing together in recognition of Truth and Reconciliation and the message that Every Child Matters.

A better wage is a reason to consider joining the union. The working life that comes with it deserves the same attention.
For experienced Millwrights, that means comparing pension contributions, benefits, continued training, and union representation alongside the hourly rate. It also means understanding what work is available, how dispatch operates and what travel may be involved.
Before making a move, get a clear picture of what membership would mean for you.

By the time a project needs its crew, many of the decisions that shape its workforce have already been made.
Bringing the MRC into planning early creates time to forecast labour needs, connect contractors with experienced Millwrights, and identify opportunities for apprentices to develop.
The workforce conversation belongs at the beginning.
