*** Help Stop Michigan from closing Enbridge Line 5 Pipeline ***
Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer is trying to close the Enbridge Line 5 Pipeline. This action will cost thousands of jobs on both sides of the border and cripple the economy in the Sarnia, Ontario area. The closure directly affects the lives of many UA members who will lose their means of income.
We want the Federal and Provincial governments to take an active role, on behalf of the residents of Ontario and more broadly Canada, and aggressively fight on behalf of all Canadians to keep this pipeline operating.
Please sign the petition and help us raise awareness and let our governments know this has to be prevented!
The Supplementary Fund Trustees want to highlight YOU and your achievements in our upcoming June Pipeline newsletter. If you or your child have benefited from our Education Bursaries and successfully completed post-secondary education, we want to feature your story!

Hurry, submissions close on April 16, 2024. By sending your bio, you agree to have your story featured in the newsletter if selected.
