At the Convention last month, NUCAUT delegates voted to have the 5th triennial Convention of National Union of CAUT on Sunday, May 4 and Monday, May 5, in Montreal, QC, in order to coincide with the CLC Convention (May 5-9). The NUCAUT Convention will begin around 6pm on Sunday evening to allow delegates time to arrive in Montreal following the CAUT Council meeting (May 1- May 4) and will continue Monday morning until the opening of the CLC Convention. If there remains unfinished business at that time, it will continue on Monday evening.
