CUPE pickets health region

Members of the CUPE Health Care Council march in protest in front of the Weyburn General Hospital at noon on Wednesday, as they held an information picket in opposition to the planned centralization of laundry services in the Sun Country Health Region in Weyburn. The union says the move will cause 28 jobs to be lost, and proposed an alternative way to save funding and jobs for the 2004-05 budget year. More actions are proposed to bring the issue before the public and the health district's attention.
