Chalk River Professional Employees Group (CRPEG)

CRPEG members hold rally at Chalk River Laboratories

On July 11, 2012, members of the Chalk River Professional Employees Group (CRPEG) represented by the Institute held a news conference and staged an information picket at Chalk River Laboratories to seek a fair settlement from their employer, Atomic Energy of Canada Limited (AECL).

These dedicated employees also raised some $280 for the Deep River Science Academy, a local summer camp that encourages high school students to pursue careers in science and engineering. CRPEG members support the Academy’s programs and make regular donations to sustain the camp.
