The Montreal location is the second of the three DNEG locations to form a union, following workers at DNEG Vancouver, who officially formed their union in November 2023. Workers at DNEG Toronto have also filed for certification and are awaiting a ruling from the Ontario Labour Relations Board.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are thrilled that workers at DNEG Montreal have the representation they fought so hard to win,\u201d said IATSE International Representative Isabelle Lecompte. \u201cAs the largest of the three DNEG studios, this is an important step for workers across the entire company having union representation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Since the announcement of workers at DNEG Vancouver were successful in forming a union, VFX workers across Canada have been actively seeking to improve their working conditions through union representation. \u201cWe are seeing an unprecedented amount of worker engagement and empowerment in VFX right now,\u201d said IATSE International Vice President and Director of Canadian Affairs John Lewis. \u201cNot only here in Canada, but in the USA as well.
