Your Union. Your Vote. Your Power
The IBT Delegates Election is your opportunity to shape the future of Teamsters Local 31 — and the entire Teamsters movement.

When you vote for delegates who represent members — not insiders — you’re investing in a union that works for you, with you, and because of you.
Why Change Is Overdue at Local 31?
After decades of the same leadership, members are demanding answers:
Where exactly are our dues going — and why isn’t it transparent?

Why is the executive board dominated by family members and friends?

Why do some Shop Stewards receive training while others are ignored?


Why is there no Youth Committee or Women’s Committee?

Why donate to U.S. charities instead of more Canadian causes?

Why are General Membership meetings inaccessible for members outside the Lower Mainland?


You’ve asked these questions. You deserve real answers — and real change!

The Bethel Unity Slate Will Deliver That Change

We’re committed to restoring transparency, fairness, and member-first leadership at Local 31.
