I don't know that my opinion matters. The members speak when they sign up.

CUPE is the largest union in Canada with over 500,000 members. Next is NUPGE with 337,000. Then the CAW with 250,000, and Steel with 190,000. Those four have sent representatives to be the four officers of the CLC.

After that, how about CEP with 150,000? PSAC also has 150,000.

From the point of view of member education and development I'd say the "prize" would go to the CAW.
