Here’s some happy #PSAC May Day news: After nearly two years of bargaining leading to one of the largest strikes in Canadian history, PSAC has reached tentative agreements for the more than 120,000 Treasury Board workers who deliver critical services to Canadians.

Happy International Workers Day! Special love to #psac for holding the line here in Canada. #unions #solidarity #PSACStrike

9% isn’t a wage hike, it’s a 4.7% wage cut in the face of 13.7% inflation since 2021 (Bank of Canada).

Wage against the Machine… Hold the line!

Solidarity! Joined the rally on the Hill in support of #psacstrike this morning. We're with you, workers. @psac_afpc

#PSAC showed up for #CUPE4600. Happy to show up for y'all.

I went by the #PSACStrike this morning and dropped off snacks and drinks. They were greatly appreciated, and they had been almost out of snacks. They're pretty much done for the day, but if you are able, find your nearest picket and drop off some snacks and drinks. I went for individually packaged, shelf stable things so people would feel confident taking stuff from a stranger, and it could be saved for another day.

CTV News - 700 military members without heat or hot water at CFB Petawawa due to PSAC strike

"The majority of buildings on base, we did lose heat and hot water," Acting Commander Andrew Mills told CTV News.

Mills says the heat and hot water outage will remain until the public service strike ends.

Explainer thread🧵 about the PSAC strike that has been giving me tsuris because of the ambivalence I feel toward CRA workers, border officials, and prison guards, all of whom belong to the Public Service Alliance of Canada, though the latter two are considered essential workers, and will not be walking out, along with firefighters.

DON'T BELIEVE THE BOSS' LIES!!

they will complain about "how long will the strike go on?", "i can't get x y z done because workers are on strike!", and ask questions like "should workers have the right to strike?"

the answers are simple: yes, of course they deserve the right to strike. if you don't believe so, shake hands with your boss and look wise.
the strike will go on as long as it takes to get better hours, wages, and working conditions. the more you *support* the strike, the sooner it will be over. if it's inconveniencing people, that's the entire point!

without these workers, none of this work gets done!

if you want the PSAC strike to end fast, JOIN THE PICKET LINE.
