I wish too. I can somewhat make sense about work from home as long as work load is doubled than the inperson work. What makes me feel nonsense is that the salary hike based on inflation. Inflation will come down soon, such case, these cry babies will ask government reduce their salary. No way.

No news should be good news, and I wish the PSAC will accept the offer when I wake up tmr

They may accept the offer and probably call another strike in a couple of years should inflation go up again. The PSAC members are frustrated and want to go back to work, they are also annoyed that they aren't even being kept in the loop on the amount of the offer

Exactly!! The true victims in this whole thing are the vast majority of these workers who DID NOT vote for this strike, and are actually sick and tired of this nonsense!!

The union leaders (more like corrupt mafia bosses), and a small minority of workers, who've been brainwashed into accepting this narrative, are the ones who are "juicing this" for as much as they can, for power and money!!

Yeah, because workers needs 24hrs notice to go back to work. I heard that is the law.

Tell me you don't know the defination of inflation without telling me you don't know the defination.

 

[SirCumsALot]

This is true, especially since there is a possibility that other strikes may occur after this (WestJet pilots, flight attendants, railway employees, etc). I hope they reach a deal and call the strike off on Monday. At the end of the day, nobody wins when a strike happens.

And OFL, ONA possibly as well.
And if they do bring in back to work maybe CUPE too. Besides quite likely it will be ruled as unconstitutional. Which would mean even more delays and wastage of tax-payers money.

Just google it.

Tons of info out there that only 35% of members voted.

These are the people processing our applications...

Except that it's not the government that suffers, but the people.
This comment is actually quite concerning. Nothing stops them from getting 13.5% raise & WFH, and then doing the bare minimum.

I don't think you understand how inflation works...

Lol... What % of votes elect people in municipal, provincial and federal elections again?

so you are comparing apple with orange

Looks like someone needs to google AND read the whole damn thing:

The board agreed this date change raised “significant concerns,” but reasonably concluded that the 85%“support for the strike was high enough that even if there were no irregularities, it is very likely that the outcome would still have been in favour of a strike.”


Oh and also:

More than 96% attendance and almost double of voter turnout.
Facts once again differs from your biased PoV.

Not really. Voter turnout is usually low evrywhere and in almost every country.
