Dana Fisher

for Local Vice President, LAO

"Vote Dana Fisher for LVP.  

​

Dana's commitment to advocating for our rights began in 2012.  As part of the initial campaign committee, she devoted her time and efforts to ensure that we had a right to collectively bargain. 

 

During the course of the five year campaign, she vigorously fought for our right to unionize, confronting both our former CEO and the former Attorney General. 

​

Eventually, she took our cause to the courts. She was a named applicant and sole affiant in the lawsuit against Legal Aid Ontario.  It was this lawsuit that eventually secured us our right to collectively bargain.  She has emerged as the spokesperson for our cause.  Her track record speaks for itself.

 

Dana has been fearless in fighting for our rights. She has spoken up for us time and time again. She won't back down and she will be there for you"
