Prince Albert city staff strike possibly in the cards after negotiations reach impasse

Prince Albert city staff strike possibly in the cards after negotiations reach impasse

CUPE 882's vice-president said the first discussion was met with a package, with the bargaining team being told that was the city's final offer, with no further discussion.

Prince Albert, Sask., city staff say they’ve reached an impasse with the city and are potentially set to strike.

The municipal workers said they are preparing for job action, which could include a full withdrawal of services as early as Aug. 10.

“The city’s offer would leave city workers with less purchasing power at a time when everything is getting more expensive,” said Tammy Vermette, president of CUPE 882.

“Despite the rhetoric from the City of Prince Albert, this offer does not address the crushing cost-of-living and instead asks their workers to do more with less.”

The union claims that city workers have accepted rates that have not kept pace with the rate of inflation, but that the mayor and council have seen their compensation increase by 20 per cent between 2016 and 2021.

“The City of Prince Albert works because our members do. Asking them to accept increases below what Mayor and Council have given themselves is just not on,” said Cara Stelmaschuk, vice-president of CUPE 882.

“The City of Prince Albert needs to shelve the excuses and make an offer that addresses the crushing cost-of-living.”

Stelmaschuk said the bargaining started quite a while ago and was going well.
