<title>Union Welcomes New Staffers</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-43666" title="handshake1" src="http://www.mediabistro.com/agencyspy/files/2013/01/handshake1-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" />Well, this perhaps answers our inquiries about the departure of Union account director <strong><a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/Christine-Macdonald-profile.html">Christine Macdonald</a></strong>, who parted ways with the Toronto-based operation that was <a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/agencyspy/from-the-ashes-of-cpb-toronto-comes-union_b40538" target="_blank">formerly known as CP+B</a> during wintertime and is <a href="http://www.linkedin.com/pub/christine-macdonald/23/b81/912" target="_blank">now working freelance</a>. The MDC-backed agency is reporting that former Cossette/BBDO account-side staffer <strong><a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/Megan-Van-Vught-profile.html">Megan Van Vught</a></strong> has joined the agency as account director.</p>
<p>In addition,  Ogilvy/Lowe Roche alums <strong><a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/Glen-DSouza-profile.html">Glen D’Souza</a></strong> and <strong><a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/Mike-Takasaki-profile.html">Mike Takasaki</a></strong>, senior art director and copywriter, respectively, who have worked together since &#8217;07, have joined in the same roles at Union, which last we heard <a href="http://www.mediabistro.com/agencyspy/toys-r-us-canada-secedes-from-union_b43301" target="_blank">parted ways (vice versa) with Toys &#8220;R&#8221; Us</a>.  Says Takasaki in statement, “If you’re lucky, you get one chance in a career to get in on the ground floor of a place like this.&#8221; Union&#8217;s current client roster includes Toronto Tourism, Axe, Best Buy and Mondelez Canada (the last of which we were told the aforementioned Macdonald was working on).</p>
