Barbara is the President of SEIU-Wes<\/a>t, a province-wide local that represents over 13,000 members in a multitude of sectors in Saskatchewan. She was exposed to the trade union movement at a very young age. She followed her passion for cooking and became a Red Seal Chef by trade, and later became a member of SEIU Local
\n299 when she began working at Extendicare in Regina. She lives in Regina with her husband Dave. She has one son, Max, who she is really proud of. Her family are a constant support in her fight for respect for working people.<\/p>\n

Barbara has always been a passionate advocate for social justice and fairness and this has led to her work within the trade union movement. She joined the Executive
\nBoard of Local 299 and became President prior to the creation of SEIU-West. She's been the President of SEIU-West since 2008. She has a genuine interest in what our members do and as President she balances the needs of members while engaging the public in supporting positive and progressive changes to society that benefit everyone.<\/p>\n

While women are a huge component of the workforce, we still often see men leading unions. Barb stands amongst these presidents, leading the way for worker's rights across the prairies. She loves a good rally, stands in solidarity with strikers, encourages those fighting for better every day, and truly embodies what the trade union movement is all about.<\/p>\n

A leader raises others up, educates and empowers others to step forward, encourages and supports others to find their own voices. Time after time, we have all witnessed Barbara Cape encourage members to lead the union. For her, it's about the movement and growing capacity. She truly is happiest watching others fight for what's right.<\/p>\n

But where there is a fight, there is a Barb! She stands with, for and beside trade union members every day, and in solidarity for a better Saskatchewan. Her work is inspired by the members she serves and her drive to support workers in their fight for dignity and respect in the workplace.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t

Professor Curran is primarily focused on using empirical methods to study labour & employment law and dispute resolution.\u00a0 He has a diverse and extensive academic background.\u00a0 He earned a Bachelor of Laws from Western; a Master of Industrial Relations from the University of Toronto; and a Masters of Law in Alternative Dispute Resolution from Osgoode Hall Law School.\u00a0 Professor Curran has also earned a Ph.D. from the University of Toronto, which further augments his interdisciplinary capacity. He obtained it at the University of Toronto\u2019s Centre for Industrial Relations and Human Resources, which has a rigorous emphasis on empirical methodology. The skills he has gained enable him to conduct empirical legal research, a burgeoning and fertile area.<\/p>\n

Doctor Curran has developed and honed skills for innovative and high-quality scholarly research.\u00a0 He has published numerous peer-reviewed articles and chapters in the area of labour and employment law.\u00a0 Many of these publications utilize sophisticated statistical analysis. Professor Curran is also a member of the national Labour Law Casebook Group, a group of Professors from across Canada who have published the authoriative Canadian casebook for labour and employment law.<\/p>\n

In addition to his research abilities, Dr. Curran is an outstanding teacher.\u00a0 He is passionate about teaching many different areas of law, especially dispute resolution, negotiation, contracts, labour and employment law, trusts, and human rights.\u00a0 He is especially interested in experiential and multi-disciplinary approaches to teaching. Before becoming a Professor at University of Manitoba Faculty of Law, he was a Lecturer in the Legal Studies program at the University of Ontario Institute of Technology (UOIT) (now Ontario Tech University), where he taught a number of courses roughly analogous to those on the JD curriculum.\u00a0 Professor Curran has also taught courses at Osgoode Hall Law School, and the University of Toronto.<\/p>\n

Professor Curran has received a number of awards and honours for his teaching. While teaching at UOIT, he was the 2015 recipient of the Award of Teaching Excellence in the Faculty of Social Science and Humanities. Since coming to the University of Manitoba, he was honoured with the University of Manitoba Merit Award for Teaching Excellence for the Humanities and Social Sciences section. Moreover, he has been nominated twice for the Barney Sneiderman Award for Teaching Excellence, and he was selected by one of his former students for recognition at the Students\u2019 Teacher Recognition Reception in 2020. His teaching experiences have inspired him to take a number of teaching courses, including an optional full semester course called \u201cTeaching in Higher Education\u201d, which provided an excellent foundation in pedagogical research and methods.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t

Jenalene Antony<\/strong> is an artist and outreach designer with a studio in rural Saskatchewan.<\/p>\n

For over ten years she supported organizations that were mission and vision-focused including; the Office of Sustainability at the UofS, Vecova Research at the University of Calgary, Agriculture in the Classroom SK and Environment Canada. She decided to start her own studio and began freelancing for science-based organizations.<\/p>\n

Her work advocating for changes to OH&S began after she was being sexually harassed at work. Her passion for protecting the most vulnerable and marginalized communities has led her to push for change to OH&S legislation in Saskatchewan where contract workers are not currently protected. She has asked the Saskatchewan government to update OH&S to include comprehensive language protecting workers from sexual\u00a0harassment, sexual violence, and sexual assault in the workplace. She is also advocating for the update to include language about\u00a0mental\u00a0health first\u00a0aid. This update needs to be inclusive and protect\u00a0lgbtqia2s+.<\/p>\n

When she isn't fighting for culture change to workplaces across Saskatchewan, she can be found at the beach - her current favorite is Last Mountain.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t
