It was while working as a Keno attendant at the Montréal Casino that Nathalie Arguin felt the need to become involved in her union, to improve her colleagues’ living conditions. That is how, in 1995, she came to participate in the founding of the Syndicat des employées et employés de la Société des Casinos du Québec–CSN.
Active in the FEESP-CSN since 1997, notably as a member of the Status of Women Committee, she assumed the role of General Secretary of the federation in 2009, and later President, from 2018 to September 2021.
Nathalie’s functions within the FEESP-CSN have led her to sit on the CSN’s Orientation Committee, the Jurisdictions Committee, the Education Working Group, the National Committee on the Status of Women, and the board of directors of Bâtirente, where she served as vice-president from 2015 to 2021. She was also the policy officer for FEESP during its 2020 round of public sector bargaining.
Nathalie Arguin was elected Secretary General of the CSN at the September 2021 Confederal Council.
Secretary General since September 2021.
