Blue Man Group will open a production in Toronto in June 2005 at the newly renovated Panasonic Theatre. Each FIA-NA affiliate will instruct its members to refuse to audition or provide service to this producer for the Toronto production until successful negotiations are concluded with the relevant Canadian associations and unions. We express disappointment at Panasonic Canada and Clear Channel Entertainment’s connection to this unfortunate situation and request that these organizations intervene directly to bring about resolution to this situation. -

Executive Council Report
ExEcutivE council REpoRt FoR ThE PaST FouR YEaRS, the Executive Council of the AFL-CIO, which is the governing body of the federation between conventions, has coordinated the work of our movement to reverse the growing power of giant corporations and special interests, while advancing the crucial needs of working families and driving programs to build a people-powered future for America. We deployed multiple approaches to grow and strengthen our movement. We seized opportunities to make working family priorities central in our nation and the global economy. And we worked to build a unified labor movement with the power to take on the tremendous challenges before us. The AFL-CIO Executive Council is constitutionally charged with reporting on the activities of the AFL-CIO and its affiliates to each Convention. It is with great respect for the delegates to our 26th Constitutional Convention that we present this report on highlights of the past four years.
