As the union’s governing body between policy conventions, the Joint Executive Council meets in person twice each year. On Sept. 19 they met in Regina, SK where they discussed financial reports, addressed unexpected expenses, and emphasized the importance of careful budgeting for future events. Attendees received the General Secretary’s report and they reviewed past meeting minutes and draft policies—including a resolution to the membership regarding continuation of the additional Defense Fund dues at their current rate.

The upcoming 2025 GSU biennial policy convention was a focal point, with a call for involvement and member resolutions.

GSU remains committed to responsible financial planning, organizing efforts, and ongoing member service and training initiatives.
