All unions affiliated to the FPPC maintain their independence. Participatory democracy is thus at the very heart of their local bodies, giving them the required latitude with respect to the governance of local union matters.

Consequently, the union, through its general assembly, determines the rate of its own share of the dues the CSQ will be handing back each month, and will use said share as it sees fit.

These dividends can therefore be used toward a local activity such as offering a meal during a general assembly or even a special activity during Education Professionals Week for instance. These contributions might also be used toward a union contingency fund to support members in the event of a strike. This autonomy is of great help to local union life and, by that very fact, member mobilization.
