Report of the Honours and Awards Committee

Denis Lalancette

In attendance: Gesine Campbell, Wayne Little, Denis Lalancette and Sylvie Bastien.

The Committee met by conference call on October 29th  to determine who would be the UTE member to go to Cameroon with Major Smith and ICA, since the committee had received no applications for students.

However, the Committee has received two applications for members. After discussion and a difficult choice given the quality of the two members who we felt were qualified to do a good job in representing the UTE in Cameroon, the Committee resolved to choose Brother Jean-Pierre Fraser of Local 10005 in Shawinigan.

Committee members also discussed the quality of both members, and the difficulty of sending only one of them. The Committee members would have liked to be able to send two. They would like to discuss it at the next meeting to be held in March prior the Presidents’ Conference. The Committee would like to discuss Regulation 24 accordingly.

The documentation will be passed on the floor.
