Bargaining update Nov 17th

We are entering a process of conciliation, starting today. Please make sure to get information about the current comparison of offers in english and/or french.

Though we have offered the College Employer Council (CEC) team a blackout for those dates that we are at the bargaining table together, along with a voluntary agreement not to escalate via a no-board report or strike vote until we have exhausted attempts to reach a negotiated settlement, both of these suggestions have been rejected by the CEC team, so the Faculty team continues work on a counter-proposal ahead of our Thursday meeting, which is the first scheduled meeting since Nov. 11.
We look forward to continued negotiations throughout this process, assisted by the Ministry-appointed Conciliation Officer.
In Solidarity,

JP, Jonathan, Katie, Michelle, Ravi, Rebecca, ShawnCAAT 'A' Bargaining Team
