Executive committee and provincial council

Even before the APTS was created, Robert served as a local union representative, board member and vice-president of the STRQ (Syndicat des technologues en radiologie du Québec), which was affiliated with the CPS (Centrale des professionnelles et professionnels de la santé). The CPS was one of the founding unions of the APTS.

Before taking the plunge in the early 2000s to devote himself to full-time union work and be released from his regular duties, he was also a member of the Board of the Ordre des technologues en imagerie médicale et en radio-oncologie et en électrophysiologie médicale du Québec from 1995 to 1999.

Robert joined the APTS executive committee in 2010 and took on a number of responsibilities, including provincial contract talks, training, and union organizing. He was elected president of the APTS in 2021 and reelected in 2023 and 2025.

With years of experience in decision-making positions at the APTS and a keen awareness of issues involving union democracy, Robert’s contribution when it comes to union organizing, raiding, contract talks and other core issues is invaluable.

Robert’s commitment over the years has always been driven by the desire to improve the working conditions of professionals and technicians and build a broad consensus on the best ways to accomplish that.

In over ten years’ experience with the APTS, she was director and then vice-president of her local executive, info-mobilization officer (AMI), and APTS provincial representative for Montérégie-Est. She was particularly active in organizing the last union allegiance campaign.

Provincial representative for Mauricie—Centre-du-Québec for almost four years, Pascale Leclair-Gingras has a rich and nuanced perspective of local and provincial issues.

In an effort to combine a high degree of local autonomy with strong and coherent provincial representation, she believes in the optimal use of shared resources with a focus on listening, communications, and training.

For Pascale, solidarity is the key to success and the basis of our collective strength, and that strength must be nourished, from the bottom up, by committed activism grounded in listening.

With her extensive union experience, Pascale was elected vice-president of the APTS at the November 2023 Convention and became secretary of the Executive Committee in November 2025.

He became an APTS member when integrated centres were established and youth centres became part of them. He joined his APTS local executive in the Gaspé, acting as treasurer, and then became a member of the Monitoring Committee before being elected treasurer on the provincial executive committee in February 2021. He was reelected to this position in November 2023 and again in November 2025.
