    Union begins campaign against Ottawa selling its Petro-Canada shares Canadian Press
    MONTREAL - The union representing Petro-Canada workers officially began an opposition campaign Wednesday against the sale of the federal government's 19 per cent stake in the Calgary-based oil company.

    Brian Payne, president of the Communications Energy and Paperworkers Union, said a survey indicates 73 per cent of Canadians support the union's position that the government should keep its stake.

    Don't Sell Petro-Canada say British Columbians Canada NewsWire
    These poll results confirm that our members who work for Petro-Canada and Canadians as a whole want to keep control of this important resource," said Dave Coles, CEP Western Region Vice President.

    "People need simply go to www.cep.ca and click on the Don't Sell Petro- Canada banner and they will be able to e-mail Paul Martin directly with the message," Mr. Coles said.
