Toronto, ON – The first female president in the 116 year history of IAMAW Local Lodge 235 is stepping down. Laura White has come full circle as a member of the IAMAW, serving in a variety of roles on numerous committees before taking on the responsibilities of president three years ago. “She has always risen to the task of representing and empowering women in our union,” said IAMAW District 78 Directing Business Representative Gary Hynes.
‘When the Local Lodge was in dire need to fill the position of President, Laura stepped up to the task,” explained Hynes. “Her dedication as a unionist never faltered and our members have benefitted from her leadership.” The Executive of IAMAW Local Lodge 235 honoured Laura at its regular monthly week earlier this week.
