Glass Canada Magazine – December 2021
As we draw towards the close of 2021, the AGMCA would like to thank all of our member glazing contractors for their continued support. Through hard work and sheer determination, our members have pushed through another very challenging year. From COVID-related shutdowns and protocols, to serious supply chain issues and rapidly escalating costs, our members have pretty much seen it all.
This year brought with it some sadness to all of us here at the AGMCA, with the passing of our long-serving director and treasurer, Al Jones of Parkway Glass. Al’s sharp wit and sense of humour are truly missed.
Next year brings another round of collective bargaining in the province of Ontario and preparations are already well under way at the AGMCA. We have heard from numerous members who have voiced their concerns and forwarded issues they would like to see brought forward to the negotiating table. Even though negotiations with the IUPAT occur every three years, we consider labour relations to be an ongoing, 365-day-a-year process. It is a year-round effort, not something that occurs every three years.
As we hopefully inch closer to a return to normalcy, the board of directors of the AGMCA would like to wish all of our members a very Merry Christmas, and a healthy and prosperous new year.
