We’re excited to welcome you to our upcoming event at Collège Boréal! Please note that the College’s support staff union is currently on strike, which means you may encounter picket lines at the front and rear vehicle entrances. This may cause minor delays when entering the site, so we recommend allowing a little extra time for your arrival.
Here are a few tips to make your arrival smoother:
- Allow extra time for possible delays at campus entrances.
- Consider carpooling, alternative transportation, or different parking options.
- Drive slowly and cautiously when approaching picket lines.
- Stay calm, patient, and respectful.
- If approached by strikers, a polite response such as “Thank you for the information” is appropriate.
We appreciate your understanding and look forward to welcoming you at Venture North Pitch 2025!
