MOOSE JAW: The City of Moose Jaw has walked away from the conciliation process and said it is finished bargaining with the union. In response, the provincially appointed conciliator has written to the Minister concluding that he was unable to reach a deal.
“If the employer would be prepared to return to conciliation and bargain in good faith, the union would be prepared to do so as well,” said Stacey Landin, president of CUPE Local 9. “However, our recent rounds of conciliation have made it clear the employer is not prepared to make any significant moves on its proposals.”
