PSAC members at the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) participated in a national bargaining conference October 28-30 to discuss and prioritize bargaining issues and elect their bargaining team. The current collective agreement expires in December, and a new round of talks is about to begin.
Our PA bargaining team returned to the table with Treasury Board, October 22–23. For the first time, the employer began responding to our proposals and in many cases signaled they were not prepared to agree to the improvements members are calling for.
