Our Mission Statement

The Mission Statement of the Regina Musicians' Association mirrors the Mission Statement of the American Federation of Musicians of the United States and Canada, as found below.

We are the American Federation of Musicians of the United States and Canada, professional musicians United and through our Locals so that:

- We can live and work in dignity;

- Our work will be fulfilling and compensated fairly;

- We will have the opportunity to develop our talents and skills;

- Our collective voice and power will be realized in a democratic and progressive union;

- We can oppose the forces of exploitation through our union solidarity.

To achieve these objectives, we must commit to:

- Treating each other with respect and dignity without regard to ethnicity, creed, sex, age, disability, citizenship, sexual orientation, marital status, family status, or national origin;

- Honouring the standards and expectations we collectively set for ourselves, and in pursuit of that vision, supporting and following the Bylaws that we adopt for ourselves;

- Actively participating in the democratic institutions of our union.

With that unity and resolve, we must engage in direct action that demonstrates our power and determination to:

-Organize musicians, extending the gains of unionism while securing control over our industry sectors and labour markets;

- Bargain contracts and otherwise exercise collective power to improve wages and working conditions, and expand the role of musicians in workplace decision-making, and build a stronger union;

- Build political power to ensure that musicians' voices are heard at every level of government to create economic opportunity and foster social justice;

- Provide meaningful paths for member involvement and participation in strong, Democrat unions;

- Develop highly trained and motivated leaders at every level of the Union who reflect membership in all its diversity;

- Build coalitions and act in solidarity with other organizations that share a concern for social and economic justice.
