Ottawa NewsGuild Celebrates 75 Years
Members of CWA-Canada’s Ottawa Newspaper Guild (CWA-Canada Local 30205) celebrated 75 years of union solidarity and excellence in journalism on December 8. The event honored the people and history of the Ottawa Newspaper Guild (ONG).
The ONG represents reporters, journalists, broadcasters, and print shop workers at CTV Ottawa, CFRA radio, and The Ottawa Citizen/Sun in the nation’s capital.
About 60 current and former union members enjoyed food and fun while celebrating and reminiscing. President of CWA-SCA Canada Carmel Smyth also joined in the festivities.
A post on the CWA-Canada website reads, “It has been decades of change, and a huge media transformation, but the job of the union stays the same: standing up for each other.”
Congratulations to the ONG for 75 years of outstanding work.
