Ranalletta Re-Elected President of CUPE BC, Province's Largest Union
'I could not be more proud to be your President,' said Ranalletta, who ran unopposed at the CUPE BC 2025 Convention held this week in Vancouver. 'I know we have it in us to take on the challenges of the next year head on, and I am ready for the fight.'
Prior to being the first woman elected to lead CUPE BC in over 25 years, Ranalletta served three terms as a General Vice-President, and as President of CUPE 2950 - representing more than 1500 clerical and library workers at the University of British Columbia.
At the annual convention, Tony Rebelo was elected to his first full term as Secretary Treasurer. Rebelo was first appointed to the post by the CUPE BC executive board mid-term in December 2024. Rebelo is a member of CUPE 7000, working at SkyTrain for over 23 years.
Over 400 CUPE BC delegates also elected four General Vice-Presidents, with regional caucus' electing Regional Vice-Presidents, and equity caucuses elected diversity vice presidents to join Ranalletta and Rebelo on the unions executive for a 2-year term.
The 2025 CUPE BC convention passed over 50 resolutions setting the agenda of the union's coming year and heard from guest speakers including CUPE's National President Mark Hancock and National Secretary Treasurer Candace Rennick, and BC Premier David Eby.
