Union, City of Windsor reach tentative agreement for inside workers
The union representing City of Windsor inside workers and the city have reached a tentative agreement, the union said Tuesday evening. Patrick Murchison, president of CUPE Local 543 representing almost 1,600 City of Windsor workers, said he was feeling "relieved" with the tentative agreement reached. "Relieved that we can actually hopefully see some light," he told CBC News Tuesday evening. "I think we're all feeling relieved." The union and the city have been in bargaining since October 2024. Murchison said details of the agreement will not be made public until and if it is ratified by members. On Tuesday evening, he said it was too soon to know when that would take place. The deal will also go to city council for approval.

City, transit union reach tentative agreement
The city and ETS workers reached a tentative agreement on Monday following months of negotiations. ETS workers are represented by the Amalgamated Transit Union (ATU) Local 569. The ATU will hold a ratification vote with its members in the coming days. The City of Edmonton did not provide further details as the process is still ongoing. 'Both parties are pleased to have reached a tentative agreement that balances the needs of Edmonton transit workers while considering the sustainability of city finances,' said a statement issued by the city Tuesday. The city and the ATU began negotiations on Aug. 14, 2024, and have met for 17 bargaining and mediation sessions since then. The last contract ended on Dec. 30, 2023. The tentative agreement, which needs to be ratified by both parties before coming into effect, will cover a four-year term from Dec. 31, 2023 to Dec. 11, 2027.
