The 'Public Service Alliance of Canada' (PSAC) is one of
Canada’s largest national
labour unions, with members in every province and territory. In fact, it is the biggest union in the Canadian Federal Public Sector. PSAC members also work abroad in
embassies and
consulates.
While many of PSAC’s 160,000 members work for the federal government,
crown corporations or agencies as immigration officers, fisheries officers, food inspectors, customs officers and the like, an increasing number of PSAC members work in the
private sector: in women’s shelters, universities, security agencies and
casinos. In Northern Canada, the PSAC represents most unionized workers employed by the governments of the
Yukon,
Nunavut and the
Northwest Territories and some municipalities.
PSAC’s National President is John Gordon; he was elected in May 2006 after Nycole Turmel, who had held the Presidency since 2000, retired. Prior to being elected President, Gordon was the National Executive Vice-President.

The Public Service Alliance Building is a noted
Ottawa landmark. Built in
1968 it is one of the capital’s more striking modern buildings
