We are working to protect public services, jobs and workers' rights

April 11, 2013 - 9:51am •

Our union, along with concerned Canadians in communities across the country, has been working hard to save services and protect jobs. We've also been using our collective agreement provisions to help members cope with the impact of budget cuts. We've negotiated those provisions, just like we've won fair wages, health and safety protections, sick leave, and all of the benefits we count on. The improvements we've made for ourselves have helped other workers do the same, contributing to a higher standard of living for everyone.

Federal budget 2013 - a message from Bob Jackson

March 20, 2013 - 10:27am •

To: PSAC Locals and Activists in BC Greetings,As you may be aware, the Conservative’s have announced they will be releasing this year’s budget on Thursday March 21, 2013 at 4PM EST. We expect the budget to contain further cuts, affecting our members and further devastating the public sector. The lack of transparency and hidden legislative changes in the 2012 budget shows the disregard this government has towards Canadians and public services.

PSAC members in Victoria: Send Stephen Harper a message by voting in the by-election November 26th

November 13, 2012 - 12:53pm •

You can send Stephen Harper a message by voting in the Victoria Federal By-Election on Monday November 26. The 2012 budget brought in by the Harper government will cut $5.2 billion out of the federal government's operating budget over the next three years. These budget cuts are bad for PSAC members and bad for the Canadians that depend on the services we provide.
