A Word
From Our President
Welcome back! I hope you all enjoyed a restful summer break and found time to recharge. As I step into the role of president for the Mission Teachers’ Union this year, I am truly excited for the opportunity to connect with each of you and to work together towards building a more cohesive and collaborative union.
In my role, I am committed to upholding our union’s objectives: promoting the welfare and professional advancement of our members, supporting the cause of education in our School District, advancing the aims of the BCTF through cooperation with other Locals, representing you, and guiding our relationship with the employer through collective bargaining.
With bargaining continuing in September, it is more crucial than ever to maintain open and clear lines of communication between all members and the union office. Please feel free to stop by the office anytime—whether you have questions, concerns, ideas for union activities, or simply want to say hello and grab a snack or beverage.
Thank you for your dedication and engagement. I look forward to a successful year ahead, united in our shared goals.
In Solidarity – Krista Balogh

The BCTF supports equity, diversity, and inclusion within the union, the workplace, and in broader society and acknowledges that: 1. discrimination and harassment must not be ignored and must be challenged and rectified. 2. not all discrimination is deliberate or visible. Inadvertent, hidden, and systemic discrimination must be identified and addressed. 3. the marginalization of certain groups must be specifically recognized. These groups include, but are not necessarily limited to women; racialized workers; Indigenous people; people who are lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, questioning, or two-spirit; people with disabilities; and those whose participation is impeded because of economic circumstances or family status. 4. equal opportunity to participate in the Federation does not mean treating all members the same. Within a democratic framework, promoting the engagement of members of equity-seeking groups is a valid and necessary approach to reaching equal outcomes. 5. Federation programs and policies designed to eliminate barriers must not only do so, they must be widely seen to do so.
