With less than three weeks to go before the contracts of Quebec’s 600,000 public sector employees expire, the hard-right CAQ government is making increasingly belligerent threats.
Quebec's public sector unions must be more "flexible" in their approach to collective bargaining talks with the province, Premier François Legault said Saturday, weeks before current contracts were set to expire.
The CAQ government is proposing wage “increases” totalling 9 percent spread over five years, although prices rose 6.8 percent last year and continue to rise at an annual rate of close to 6 percent in 2023.
Premier Francois Legault is calling for more flexibility in the collective agreements to change the way the health care network works, assuring that it is in no way a question of reducing the benefits of nurses. With one month to go before the expiry of the collective agreements in the public sector, Legault returned to the charge in a publication on social networks on Saturday morning.
