On this day in 1991, the federal government legislated members of the Public Service Alliance of Canada (PSAC) back to work after talks broke down. The striking public servants took to the streets, blocking bridges and occupying a minister's office. @psacnat #canlab #cdnpoli

"The negotiations we’ve seen in recent weeks send a signal to the employers that workers in this country are not willing to accept anything below the rate of inflation", said Chris Aylward, PSAC national president. #canlab #canpoli
