Federal workers hit the picket lines across the country after Canada’s largest federal public-service union and Ottawa fail to reach a deal by a Tuesday evening

Canada’s largest federal public-service union has left the bargaining table but says it is standing by to resume negotiations when the federal government comes back with a new offer.

A late Tuesday news release from the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat says the government and the Public Service Alliance of Canada are still at odds when it comes to key contract issues for both sides. The union’s national president Chris Aylward said during a brief news conference in Ottawa on Tuesday night that despite the move, union officials are still hopeful and the goal is to get a tentative agreement.

“These are workers that were the ones that delivered so much important supports for Canadians when we needed it most in the pandemic,” Singh said. “And now they deserve respect.” Wage increases have been top of mind at the table, with the union pushing for annual raises of 4.5 per cent over the next three years. It says the increases are necessary to keep pace with inflation and the cost of living.
