The following email message will be sent to Glenn Taylor, Executive Director:

"People with developmental disabilities rely on the care and services provided by front-line workers at Community Living Durham North.

Your decision to pull the trigger on bargaining talks prematurely and unnecessarily means over 200 people with developmental disabilities are at risk of losing important services they rely on.

Stop playing games with services that people rely on. It is time you return to mediation talks on October 27 with the full intention of bargaining fairly and respectfully to reach a fair contract so workers can continue to help supported individuals and their families."
