This document discusses concerns about the political neutrality of CAW Local 222 leadership. It notes that a 1993 referendum vote found that 86% of members wanted the union to stop supporting political parties like the NDP. However, the union continues to support the NDP through actions of President Chris Buckley and others. This likely violates the Federal Accountability Act that prohibits political donations from unions. The document advocates for a vote for Al Clarke for president to restore political neutrality, comply with the law, and respect members' wishes to not support any political party.
