Looks like the strike might be coming to an end soon. The PSFSO won at the labour board.

Yes, unfortunately this is one of those times, where "soon" will be a very subjective term.

The very fact that Harper's government is appealing shows that they are not willing to negotiate and that they intend to delay further.

I agree, they have gone this long and they are firm on their position, I think they will allow the strike to go on until pfswa runs out of money and is forced to fold or forced into arbitration.
