Bargaining Bulletin #9 - February 22, 2011


CUPE Local 500/City of Winnipeg bargaining update

The Union and the City are set to resume talks at the bargaining table on February 24 with the assistance of a conciliation officer. On February 18, members voted 87% to reject the City's offer of settlement and authorize strike action.

Once talks resume, we will be going back to a media blackout on negotiations so we can concentrate on getting a settlement
