PSAC/UCTE members of Local 20209 working at Victoria Airport have ratified a one-year extension of the current Collective Agreement. The extension, which expires March 31 2020, contains new improvements to vacation scheduling and protects members jobs during uncertain times for the airline industry: the Airport Authority continues to commit to avoid any layoffs.

The CMHC Granville Island bargaining team, consisting of Tony Barrow, Sandy Scott, Steven Chen, Verda Cook, and Maxime Thibault-Gingras met remotely with the employer on June 2, 3, and 29 to continue bargaining the new collective agreement. The current agreement expired March 31, 2020.

The team and the employer continued working through a significant amount of employer-side non-monetary proposals, many of which are housekeeping items that do not affect the substance of the collective agreement.
