Despite all the strong language against the agreement that has been seen online, seems the membership has thought otherwise.

If the union had just taken the deal offered before the strike I probably would have begrudgingly voted to ratify it and I would be far less bitter than I am now. I have become far less trusting of the union, who has tried to tell the membership that this is a great deal and it was all worth it. I know people aren’t happy, but most people jusy want this over.
Hopefully negotiations for the next agreement don’t get as far as a strike vote because I’m far less likely to support a mandate. Thanks for my leave without pay PSAC.
Do you have any insight into the politics behind why the negotiators may have settled for the deal they did, and why the union ultimately accepted the deal? I’m curious what happened.
Anything I can come up with would be speculative, but here’s my take:
It’s disgusting that after the largest strike in the country’s history, the union negotiated a worse agreement than what they were offered initially. What a bunch of cowards and traitors
Public unions suck. Am apart of one
