AUPE picketers, traumatizing infants: impact statement

Artspace members range from infants to people in their 80's.  All are affected.

One member family has a baby that was 3 months old when the strike started.  This is how the picketers have affected their home. (Submitted June 14)

...
The actions of AUPE members/striking SAIL staff is giving our family a real hard time when the mom and new born desperately need rest after the delivery.  Starting from early morning into late afternoon AUPE members and striking SAIL staff are making all kinds of noises right below our bedroom.  My wife can not have a good rest during the day, and she still needs to feed the baby at night.  My son is also suffering sleeplessness because of the noises made by AUPE members/striking SAIL staff.

AUPE picketers know full well the range of people who live at Artspace.  They know they are disturbing all of us.  They know they are causing harm to the vulnerable.

Yet still, they do it.
