Negotiations Update

The CRPEG membership ratified the tentative agreement that was reached on July 12^th. See this link for further information.

The CRPEG Executive would like to thank Jamie Dunn (PIPSC negotiator) for his excellent leadership and guidance throughout negotiations, the CRPEG negotiating team for all of their hard work and long hours, and PIPSC for their support with the information picket, media releases and sponsoring the BBQ.

Thank you to the Organizing Committee and many volunteers who put on the BBQ last night, everything was excellent.

Thank you to Gary Corbett (PIPSC President), Debi Daviau (PIPSC Vice-President), and John Courtney (PIPSC NCR Director) for joining us at the ratification meeting. Your presence was greatly appreciated.

Finally, thanks go to our members for their patience and understanding throughout this long negotiations round, and for their overwhelming support given to the Executive to achieve a settlement.
