"Having worked side by side with her for five years at the Vancouver Musicians’ Association, I whole heartedly endorse Dusty Kelly for International Executive Board. Dusty is the most union minded officer I have ever met. During her time at the VMA, Dusty worked tirelessly to improve the lives of musicians in British Columbia, and in turn the VMA. She is an experienced negotiator, having negotiated with employers from our local symphonies (achieving the first ever collective agreement with Kamloops Symphony) to large employer groups like AMPTP and Canadian Media Producers Association. You can rest assured that with Dusty on the IEB the AFM will be a stronger organization.”
