Just for your info
I know that the employer has put a memo in your files indicating that they are available to bargain everyday next week. I'm not really sure how they plan on doing that. Monday is a holiday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday of next week the employers bargaining team will be at the labour board, dealing with a termination grievance. So the only day that they are really available, is possibly Friday. Unless they plan an cancelling the Labour board dates. It just doesn't make any sense to offer dates that you wont be able to make.

The results are in
The results of the ratification vote are as follows,
The current tentative package has been rejected, by the majority.
The voter turn out was over 85%
I want to thank everyone for attending the ratification vote and showing support for the team, ultimately it was the members that decided their own fate that's what a union is all about.
Please stay tuned for follow up information.
Please respect the vote of the majority. This is a true representation of what the members want.

WE HAVE A TENTATIVE DEAL
We have a tentative deal. so what
needs to happen is this everyone
needs to make an effort to attend
the meetings on May 13. On that day
at the meeting you will receive a
document to consider ask questions
at this time if you have them. The
following day Thursday May the 14
2009 voting will take place at the
Fonthill office. Again if you have
questions ask them prior to voting on
that day. You will have the
