Joint Union Statement - Trudeau government must pause heating plant privatization and answer key questions

The leaders of 4 national unions, representing more than 1.2 million workers, are demanding that the Trudeau government step back from the imminent privatization of federal centralized heating and cooling plants in the National Capital Region, and stop stonewalling requests for information on this potentially reckless change to critical infrastructure.

Workers and clients in the buildings served by these plants have a right to know that their concerns about safety and security are being heard and are being addressed.

Negotiations resume for Parks Canada members today

Today, PSAC’s Parks bargaining team will be returning to Ottawa to negotiate with Parks Canada representatives. Meetings will take place over three days from May 28 to 30.
