Tentative Deal Reached with Canada Border and Customs Workers

According to the CBC, the Public Service Alliance of Canada (PSAC) and the Customs and Immigration Union (CIU) have reached a tentative agreement, avoiding potential job action at Canada's borders.

Job action was postponed Friday, 07JUN, after mediation talks were extended to reach an agreement.

More than 9,000 members of the PSAC and the CIU said they would begin job action across the country on 14JUN at 12:01 a.m. ET if an agreement was not reached at the table with the Canada Border Services Agency and the Treasury Board.

How tentative is “tentative” remains to be seen.

Ratification is set for members on Thursday (13JUN).

Open Jaw is following the story closely.
