ABOUT

We Are a Proud Union of Professionals

Unions come in all shapes and sizes. All have the best interests of their members at heart, but beyond that there are often significant differences in philosophy and approach.

At IBEW Local 37, we like to feel, and have been repeatedly told, that we’re one of the most forward-thinking unions in the country, and beyond. Today, Local 37 is one of the largest and most progressive IBEW locals in all of Canada

We are team of professionals dedicated to representing professionals when it comes to rights, workplace issues, developing and delivering programs, and helping make sure members get the most out of their membership.
