Hi,<\/p>\r\n\r\n

When bargaining began last June, I honestly didn\u2019t think that almost a year later, I\u2019d be writing this.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

Despite all Prime Minister Justin Trudeau\u2019s promises to be different from Stephen Harper and restore respect for public service workers, his government has been unwilling to address our workplace concerns at the bargaining table.
\r\n
\r\nThe last two bargaining sessions were even held in the presence of a federal mediator<\/a>, but still nothing<\/a>.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

Our various proposals to improve working conditions have been ignored. The government is also resisting fair wage increases even though our last raise was in November 2015.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

And, of course, since that time we\u2019ve all had to deal with the Phoenix nightmare.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

We\u2019re now just a few months away from the next federal election, and we need to tell the government to make it right. We deserve a fair contract now!<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n \r\n \r\n
