Regional Executive Vice President

Colleen Coffey, Regional Executive Vice-President, Atlantic

Colleen Coffey was elected Atlantic Regional Executive Vice-President at the 7th Regional Triennial Convention on June 24, 2017 in Saint John, NB.

An active PSAC member for over 20 years, Sister Coffey first began her union activism with the Goose Bay Women’s Committee and entered into a long pay equity battle.  She was workforce adjusted in 1998 and moved to the Airforce Base in Greenwood, NS.  After re-establishing herself and her family, she got involved in her union local and held many roles from Secretary, Treasurer, Shop Steward, Chief Shop Steward and finally President for the past 12 years. 

She held a seat on the PSAC Atlantic Council for three terms and was elected the Alternate REVP for those terms. 

Sister Coffey was elected to be the female PSAC Representative on the Nova Scotia Federation of Labour Executive Council and held this seat for several terms until she was elected the Female Vice President at Large that she maintained for two terms.

January 7, 2016   Ryan Albright Covered Bridge Potato Chips 35 Alwright Ct  Waterville, Carleton County, NB E7P 0A5   Dear Mr. Albright,   I am writing to you on behalf of 18,000 members of the Public Service Alliance of Canada (PSAC) in the Atlantic Region as we have serious concerns over the labour dispute at your workplace.

Let the chips expire on the shelves   Like many people, I’m appalled by the lack of respect demonstrated by Mr. Ryan Albright towards his employees.  By saying that he would offer his employees what they are looking for, but never in a union environment, Mr. Albright is acting like a bully and bargaining in bad faith.  Bullying is unacceptable, whatever form it takes and regardless in which situation it is present.

On National Public Service Week, we thank our public servants for the incredible work they do building and preserving the things we value in this country. From coast to coast to coast, public servants are there: supporting veterans, conducting safety inspections on everything from food to infrastructure, conserving parks and wildlife, protecting natural resources and providing public services to those in need.

Sisters and Brothers,   I encourage you to participate in the International Day of Pink, tomorrow, April 8, 2015.  On this day, we invite Canadians to wear a pink shirt to send a message that homophobia, transphobia, harassment and bullying are wrong and will not be tolerated.
