The countdown is on to potential job action Friday at Canada’s borders as the unions representing 9,000 Canada Border Services Agency employees try to hammer out a new contract agreement with the federal government.
“But we’ve set a deadline for Trudeau’s Liberal government to get to work on a fair contract for workers.”Union officials said the key issues include wages that are aligned with other law enforcement agencies across the country, flexible telework and remote work options, equitable retirement benefits for CBSA law enforcement personnel and stronger workplace protections.
In 2021, labour disruptions nearly brought commercial cross-border traffic to a standstill, causing major delays at airports and borders across the country and a marathon 36-hour bargaining session to reach an agreement.
