Our union will not trade in four years of our members’ pain and suffering for a settlement that does not adequately compensate for the terrible toll Phoenix has had on their lives and that of their families.

With over 140,000 PSAC members at the bargaining table with the Trudeau government, PSAC President Chris Aylward and Vice-President Magali Picard began a cross-country mobilization tour this week in British Columbia. In the coming weeks, our national representatives will meet with the membership from every region to discuss our bargaining efforts and support mobilization around those key issues.

PSAC’s bargaining team representing members at the Canadian Food Inspection Agency kicked off a new round of bargaining in Ottawa between February 26 and 28.
