And yet the (frank)ers are on strike!

WITH MY SON'S PASSPORT!






Yes, I'm still mad.

it does now.

sweet.

both sides are saying the other isn't budging, this is more a personality clash between children than an objective negotiation. again, (frank) everyone.

government will pay around 3% increase...might as well accept that fact. Our staff signed for 2.5%, 3% and 3.5% with a $2000 signing bonus, agreement is retro to June 2022.

btw....

NHL lottery draft is in 12 days

most public workers didn't vote for the strike at all, so tell that to mr. PSAC president who says he'll be there no matter how long it takes, cuz you know, being on strike for months is definitely viable for everyone.

I deal with export contracts, nothing to do with immigration. Our staff is unionized with a different union, they just signed for 3yrs for less money PSAC is asking for.

unionized with a different union hmmmm

The only thing I support from the strike is that's it's not normal to not have an agreement more than 2 years after the previous collective agreement ended.

But what else can you expect when you show up with 570 demands and won't budge on anything.

Our staff is with PIPS, not PSAC

I am management, not unionized, haven't been for almost 10yrs

I'm curious to know what all these demands are, I still don't understand how there could be that many.

speaking of, it looks like it's gonna be another Biden VS Trump showdown for the next presidential elections... it's incredible
- Pat1993

with a bit of luck, they'll both die before the elections

- Pat1993

Well as someone who contributes une negociations at the provincial level, I can tell you that number is most likely inflated... but it's still completely insane.

In 2020, healthcare workers had 85 demands outside of salary. Which was already alot believe me.

inflated to make the other party look bad? wow, that's not childish and dishonest at all.

that way it won't be taken over by AI because it won't be able to recognize the archaic technology

Speaking of……I JUST bought an old school Nintendo with original Mario/Duck Hunt and Mario 3.

He showed me how to clean it with windex and (frank) with it to get it to work and said that I can’t play Duck Hunt unless I had an old tube tv!! 😂🤣
