Following a return to the bargaining table, the BCGEU's Public Service Bargaining Committee has stood down job action as a sign of good faith.
The two sides will continue to meet throughout the week, hoping to finalize a tentative agreement. #bcpoli bcgeu.ca/following_talks_wit…

Employers across Canada have been whining on about a “labour shortage”.
*There is no such “labour shortage”.*
*There is a shortage of good paying jobs.*

This flyer came to my parents’ house advertising @MapleLeafFoods hiring. They advertise $14.20/hr. Beside it is my mom’s pay cheque from 1987 when Canada Packers paid their employees $13.26/hr. Over 30 years and not much change. Shameful. #LivingWage

Even this atheist is willing to pray for the women and men of our BC Wildfire Service.
You’re the best on this planet at what you do, but stay safe out there, don’t over-extend yourself, and thank-you.

It is past time for this country to take full responsibility for the genocide perpetuated in residential schools. There will be no justice until we acknowledge the truth and implement the calls to action from the TRC and calls to justice from the National Inquiry into MMIWG2S.

1of2: If you’re thinking about using @FlightHub for a trip, there’s a couple things you should know: 1) they take 6-8 weeks to process refunds 2) if they say they will call you back -they won’t! (was told on three occasions I would get call backs and received none) #cheapflights

2of2- 3) agents are trained to use scripts which blame airlines for cancelled flights 4) they will leave you on hold forever (was on hold for a total of over 4 hours during 3 calls) #mostimportantly don’t use @FlightHub #traveltips #badcompany #badservice #Airlines #planetickets

Members of our union, IAMAW Local Lodge 3111 CULR (@IAMAW3111) would far rather be out volunteering for our local @NDP candidates than being forced to be on STRIKE against @CanadianLabour management.
We unequivocally support #NDP federal candidates.
