Why?

Because, if we don't use political action where possible, then we can't say that we're doing everything in our power to make things better for our members.

Target 2010

We hope you will also find in this kit the inspiration to set a new benchmark for local political action in your association this fall when your local municipal election campaign gets underway, to rally your members and to illustrate to them how much there is to gain if you pull together as a union and elect more fire—friendly people to sit around your city council table than ever before.

We know you’ve seen the tremendous successes that political action has delivered to us at the federal level in Canada and at the provincial here in Ontario. These successes came because of coordinated political action initiatives and the hard work of dedicated IAFF members who rolled up their sleeves on behalf of their brothers and sisters and did what needed to be done.
