Stories of Strength Trades and the Voice of Glen MacNeil - Episode #17

In this episode of The CUSW Spotlight Podcast, host Dan sits down with a voice every listener knows, even if the face is new. Glen MacNeil, the songwriter and narrator behind the CUSW Spotlight theme, steps into the spotlight to share his remarkable journey through the trades, union life, and creative expression. From growing up in Cape Breton to spending 30 years in a distillery, transitioning into the electrical trade later in life, and finding his place within the CUSW family, Glen reflects on the chapters that shaped who he is today. Together, Dan and Glen talk openly about career pivots, lifelong learning, stepping into union leadership roles, and the responsibility and privilege of being there when someone needs help. The conversation also dives into mental health, the importance of human connection in an increasingly digital world, and how the culture around speaking up and supporting one another has evolved in the trades. Woven throughout is Glen’s passion for music, creativity, and storytelling, culminating in a special live moment that brings the heart of CUSW full circle. This episode is a reminder that it’s never too late to start a new chapter, raise your hand, or use your voice, whether at work or in life. Want to connect with Glen?
