Communications, Energy and Paperworkers Union of Canada, invariably called by its official English and French initialisms '''CEP''' and '''SCEP''', is a largely Private Sector Labour Union with 160,000 members. It was created in 1992 through the merger of three unions - the Canadian Paperworkers Union , the Communication And Electrical Workers Of Canada and the Energy And Chemical Workers Union . Other unions have since merged into the CEP. The communications portion of CEP consists mainly of Canadians formerly belonging to TV technicians NABET or journalists in The News Guild . The energy portion of CEP consists mainly of Canadians in the oil, gas and chemical unions. The paperworkers portion of CEP consists mainly of pulp and paper workers in Ontario and Quebec. Membership is constantly in flux, as local unions join, merge and depart on a regular basis. CEP locals at the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation ceased functioning after a Labour Relations Board Of Canada decision creating one English union at CBC and a Board-supervised vote which chose the Canadian Media Guild (affiliated with the American or International Union CWA-TNG).
