I, for one, like discussing all aspects. We have no idea whats going on with the negotiations. These news give us an idea as to where this is heading.

Canada should send troops to force the public servants to return back to work or they should quit their positions immediately. It makes no sense they can continue without any punishments, considering how much trouble they have caused to the public.

I think you are mistaking Canada with an autocratic like country.

People are on strike, you shouldn't expect any service.

There is an option ( back to work ) for government but they will not do it as NDP will not support it. Also, government gets more public support Bcz of strike so gov let this people continue strike. Politics.

My partner just got the cancelation email for his ceremony on April 27th from the Calgary office.
He won't be able to travel, and he won't be able to renew his PR card or his (other) passport in time.

We don't live in Russia, fortunately.

Also, not sure if anyone has seen the latest update: https://psacunion.ca/update-psac-ute-bargaining-team-national-strike
"However, to date, we remain in dispute over key issues with the CRA. These include:

1. Telework: We are seeking language in our collective agreement so that our members have the right to telework arrangements, and if management says no, management must provide an explanation in writing, and if unreasonable, the union can challenge the decision. Other federal employers have agreed to this. CRA has to date taken the position that there is to be no language on telework in our collective agreement.
2. Compensation: We are seeking compensation that will address the cost of living and inflationary pressures. We are also looking for wage adjustments to bring our wages in line with our fellow public service employees. The employer’s position for compensation does not provide for such a wage adjustment and is far below inflation, which is unacceptable to us.
3. Job security: We are seeking protections that are in line with other collective agreements, including years of service recognition and protections against the contracting out of our jobs. The employer to date has said no to these proposals."

So it seems that these CRA f**kers are still playing hardball with their 30% wage increase demand, and the rest is settled? At least that's my understanding.

Yeah, not much has changed from yesterday. CRA is going crazy with their demands. I think the other departments must be getting worried about CRA stand as well
