Message from Retiring Full Time Officer, Nancy Jickels

At the conclusion of my nearly 30 year career with the City of New Westminster and CUPE 387, I want to take this opportunity to express my gratitude for the support of my coworkers and fellow union members over these years.

In the last 4 1/2 years in the position of full-time officer for CUPE 387 I expanded my knowledge and understanding of the city as a whole, exposing me to all the areas of the city, which previously I had been less familiar with.

During my time as full-time officer we all experienced a worldwide pandemic, an unprecedented bargaining negotiation process, and have arrived at an overall “new normal”. I believe we have come through with a fresh appreciation and understanding of the world around us.

I wish you all good health, hope and happiness in the times ahead!

Be kind to one and other.

Take care,

Nancy
