This is a big local, and has more history than most, given the way that transit drivers in the greater Vancouver area voted to switch from the (U.S.-based) Amalgamated Transit Union to an independent Canadian union, and later to the Canadian Auto Workers union, and in light of the sometimes bitter history of negotiations and strikes (which the article doesn't discuss enough, and which ended the careers of some municipal politicians who took a hard line against the union). Individual locals of (say) an airline mechanics union may not be notable if they all represent workers doing the same work, but individual locals of a diversified union such as the Canadian Auto Workers can be notable, especially if they are quite large, represent a bargaining unit outside the traditional auto plant sector, or have a distinctive individual history. --
