We were expecting it last weekend but after some more negotiations some members of the SGEU are now walking the picket lines.

 

All indications are it'll be Christmas on the picket lines for members of the SGEU.

Job action began Wednesday night for members who work at correctional facilities in the province. Those members walked off the job at 11 o'clock Wednesday night to start the rotating job action.

The union that represents 13 thousand government employees says it's utterly disappointed with the way negotiations have gone this week, despite some movement and change of tone to start the week.

This is just the start as the union plans to take more members of the job in the coming days and weeks until a new contract is reached.
