📨 Nous avons déposé directement au siège d'Ubisoft une lettre de nos camarades d'Ubisoft Halifax à Yves Guillemot, en en ajoutant une demandant que l'entreprise coopère de son plein gré. Nous espérons que l'entreprise sera raisonnable et laissera nos camarades se syndiquer en paix.
Une personne tiens devant l'appareil photo deux lettres à l'attention d'Yves Guillemot : la première de Ubisoft Workers Canada Halifax, la seconde du STJV. On voit derrière l'entrée du siège mondial du groupe Ubisoft.
