Quebec premier asks unions for flexibility amid collective bargaining talks
The province tabled the offer after unions refused to participate in discussion forums organized by Quebec Treasury Board president Sonia Lebel.During a press conference Wednesday, Lebel said her offers were worth $700 million and had been shared via email since the unions did not show up to the discussion forums where she intended to present them.
The president of Quebec’s largest union — which represents more than 600,000 members — called the message “false” and accused the premier and the government of “disinformation.” Picard noted the discussion forums proposed by the government are not part of “a legal framework” for holding negotiations, where proposals can be put forward for discussion.
