Our final batch of bad boss stories from folks across Saskatchewan this summer.

Workers deserve to feel safe and supported at work. Join a union that will work with you to make conditions better for you and your coworkers.

Cover of the October 1927 of the Saskatchewan Government Services Association publication that would later be named "The Dome." It features an illustration of an artist inking "Greetings" on a drawing board in big letters.

Did you know? Almost a century ago, SGEU (then called the Saskatchewan Government Services Association) established a member-produced publication known as The Dome.

The name was selected from a contest run in the first issue, which promised a prize of five dollars to the winning entry.

Truth calls us to live our union values every day 🐢

It’s aligning our actions with fairness, equity and justice for all workers.

Our strength comes from staying true to our convictions.

Represented by the wolf, humility reminds us that no role is more important than another 🐺

Leaders, stewards and members all walk side by side in the work of collective action.

We lead best when we lead together.

Text (white on a pink background): Pink Shirt Day, February 25. Wear pink to stand up to bullying!

In 2007, a ninth-grade student in Nova Scotia was bullied for wearing a pink shirt on his first day of school. After noticing the event, two grade 12 students bought and distributed 50 pink shirts to wear in a powerful display of solidarity.

Honesty is represented by Sabe, the giant🌲

It means open conversations, transparent decisions and accountability to one another.

Honesty builds trust within our union.

Wishing all our members and their families a blessed Ramadan. 🌙✨

Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar and a sacred time observed by Muslims around the world. It is a month of fasting from dawn to sunset, prayer, reflection, and community, focused on gratitude and spiritual growth.

Represented by the bear, courage is speaking up for fair treatment and safe workplaces 🐻

It’s standing together in tough moments, knowing that collective action makes us stronger than standing alone.

Courage pushes the union forward.

Text reads, "Seven Sacred Teachings: Respect" accompanied by a photo of a buffalo standing in a field.

Respect is represented by the buffalo 🦬

In a labour context, respect means recognizing the dignity of all workers. It’s listening to members, honouring diverse experiences & standing together—especially when it’s difficult.

A strong union is built on mutual respect.

Text reads, "Seven Sacred Teachings: Love" accompanied by a photo of a golden eagle perched on a rock.

Represented by the eagle, love shows up as solidarity 🦅

It’s the care we have for one another on the job, in our communities, and in our union. When one worker is struggling, we lift each other up.

Union strength begins with looking out for one another.

We will debate, we will disagree, and we will challenge one another. But when it comes to our children, our communities, and a nation in shock, we stand together.

In moments like this, we are reminded of who we are. I am proud of how leaders from all political parties responded — with compassion, respect, and unity. This is Canada.
