CIU and PSAC Rally for a Fair Contract for FB Members

On September 29, delegates and attendees participating in the 2017 National Convention rallied in front of CBSA offices in downtown Ottawa regarding the ongoing bargaining process with the government. FB members have been without a contract for more than 1200 days.

The Union sent a clear message to the Employer: Members are united and the FB group deserves a fair contract now. Among the major issues that were brought up were wage parity with other law enforcement agencies and ’25 and Out’ – the possibility of retiring after 25 years without penalty.

A video of the rally was published on our Facebook page. You can also find a few pictures of the demonstration below.

About the Convention

The National Convention is held once every three years and provides an opportunity for all CIU members to become involved in the operation and future of their Union.

As the supreme governing body of the Union, the National Convention provides a forum for delegates, elected by their peers and on a per capita basis according to District Branch membership, to represent their Sisters and Brothers in making decisions that govern both the administration and the policies of this Union for the ensuing three-year period.
