Robert Kornhass ~ Secretary-Treasurer and Principal Officer

Brother Bob started his career in the 1990s as a worker at Dairyworld, the largest employer of Local 464. His fellow workers, fed up with the lack of union representation, encouraged him to run for office. Winning the most overall votes, he was elected to the Business-Representative position.

Entering office, he set about spearheading the first strike in our Local’s history and thus negotiated, for our Original Cakerie members, one of the best contracts in their industry.

Testimonial

"I was there when we brought the Union in. The first-time contract they won for us was unbelievable. It changed the quality of my life. I am now a Shop Steward and enjoy working with my Union and looking after my fellow workers. "

- Paul Landrecht - Shop Steward. Island Farms Dairy.

"I was a Shop Steward and was also on the contract negotiation team. The Union took the time and trouble to learn all about our industry and what we do. This means they are better able to fight for us whether it is on the job or at the bargaining table. We have the best contract in our industry. Thanks guys!"

- Gerald Price - Agrifoods

“I look after a lot of members in a very big plant. For years I had to fight for them by myself with no help at all from any of the Union’s representatives or Officers. This changed completely once Bobby, Bob and Paul were in office. Now I have access to my reps 24 hours a day, 7 days a week!  They’re always there to back me up.” 

- Darrell Lawres – Chief Shop Steward. Saputo, Sperling
