Congratulations to the team of officers unanimously elected at the 41st UA General Convention!

Under the leadership of General President Mark McManus, the United Association has grown to more than 410,000 members strong—and continues to build on that momentum.

Across Canada and the United States, our strength comes from standing together. On both sides of the border, we are united by the same commitment to our members, our trades, and the future of our union.

This leadership team will continue moving the UA forward, strengthening our union, creating opportunities for our members, and ensuring the UA remains the best trained, most highly skilled workforce in the piping industry.

Congratulations to our officers, and thank you for your continued leadership and commitment to the sisters and brothers of the United Association.

Two countries. One union. One UA.

Your newly elected Officers have been officially sworn in at the 41st UA General Convention.
