We are celebrating Canada’s 150th Birthday by asking AV Members (AU-CO-PG) to share a story about their summer vacation in Canada with PIPSC.
Contest Rules: Contest starts on July 1st, 2017 and ends on September 6th, 2017. Winners will be selected by the AV Communications Committee (Darlene McKay, Jacques Laperriere, and David Chu). Vacation must be taken in Canada as this is to celebrate Canada’s 150th Birthday.
The “Holland Cross Debates” sessions are intended to offer an open discussion with some PIPSC officials about key issues in the collective bargaining and other career related issues. It is one thing to get the views of the local audience at each Debate, but the “Holland Cross Debates” are also keen to find out what the rest of PIPSC members think about the issues we raise.
The SUN-RT Bargaining Team is requesting your participation at the Collective Agreement Information Session on June 23, 2017 at Sunnybrook T-Wing, T-2028 (K.H. Shumak Boardroom) from 12:30 p.m. - 2:00 p.m. A ratification vote will take place after the session.

The Bargaining Team is pleased to announce that on June 21, 2017 we reached a tentative agreement with Management to renew the collective agreement.
Over the last few weeks we have continued to explore a narrowed-down set of bargaining priorities in hopes of coming to an agreement in a timely manner. The deal we’ve agreed to builds off what we presented you a few weeks ago. It includes administrative changes to maternity leave provisions, as well as a 1.25% economic increase effective June 20th 2017. It will also result in a new expiry date of June 19th, 2018.
