No Deal—We Prepare for Strike
Today, despite the best efforts of your bargaining team, no deal has been reached during our final day of conciliation.
This does not mean we are going on strike tomorrow. It does, however, mean that we must finalizing the preparation we began the past few months. It is now more important than ever that your strike committees and essential services agreement committees are in place and fully operational.
More details about how the last day of bargaining went and what our next steps are will be discussed in in 2 town halls on March 25 at 4 PM and 7 PM. Please encourage all your coworkers to attend.
LTC Call – 4 pm | Meeting-Join | Microsoft Teams
LTC Call – 7pm | Meeting-Join | Microsoft Teams
This is not the outcome any of us wanted; however, it is an outcome we have been preparing for. This process has shown us that we, as a sector, are united and ready to fight for what we deserve. Let’s make it impossible for the government to ignore that.
Solidarity!
