What do you mean by ghosted? They don't respond to an email? The prior thread was posted 13 days ago and it sounded at that time you hadn't yet contacted them. So I guess it has been less than 13 days.
You said you aren't in a hot shop that it is a long term situation. So there isnt a hurry.
Unless you were supposed to meet up and they no showed or something. That would be another story.
Did you find any other good candidate unions?
I mean, there's basically Teamsters. There was one potential fit in terms of labour type niche, but their website implies they only take new individual members who are looking to get a job via apprenticeship.
Phone them anyway. They might know who to talk to. I wouldn't rely on a websearch only to find leads.
District labor council?
The closest one is four provinces away, but I did bookmark the number yesterday.
