BCGEU members will get the nitty gritty details of their tentative agree ment this week They would be wise to take a close look at them and realize the historic signifi cance of what they are be ing asked to approve
After years of annual wage increases of zero, one per cent or two per cent, the BCGEU was able se cure a potential increase of almost 14 per cent over three years
As a result, the total cu mulative cost of this round of negotiations will likely be around $10 billion over the next three years Given other cost pressures and spending priorities facing government, I doubt there is much appetite to provide even more billions of dol lars to public sector em ployees to meet inflation demands (tying wage hikes to a seven per cent infla tion rate would cost an ad ditional $5 billion or so over three years).
B.C. union deal could be historic
“Cue the insensitive complainers: ‘I don’t want that in MY neighborhood!’This is awesome, perfect use of that massive empty space ”
On top of that, several thousand members who work in the liquor distri bution branch will receive more than $2,000 as a form of pandemic pay for front line retail workers
Others seem to think the annual wage increases should equal the inflation rate each and every year, which is a position not grounded in political re ality.
The union was also able to get the employer (the provincial government) to more than double its open ing offer of just 5 75 per cent over three years.That kind of movement is al most unheard of in collec tive bargaining
In this case, it appears the union opted to give up the signing bonus in or der to boost the wage in crease in the second year of the contract. Depend ing on the cost of living in crease, the increase will be between 5.5 per cent and 6 75 per cent.
Diana Radonjic via Facebook
And yet, despite this his toric breakthrough, some members have been ex pressing their dissatisfac tion with the deal on social media Some union mem bers have told me they have heard from colleagues who intend to vote against the contract
Its members will receive annual average wage hikes of between 3 8 per cent and 4 5 per cent a year the biggest increases won by a major public sector union in decades
The BCGEU deal will serve as the template for other public sector unions negotiating new contracts (the Hospital Employees Union has reached the ex act same tentative deal as the BCGEU and there has been no grumbling from its membership about it)
This sort of thing should happen more often in every city with a homeless problem We should not have perfectly usable empty buildings standing around when people are on the street ”

How do you feel being able to perform to a live audience again?
If I’m singing an Irish ballad, I am imagining the scene I’m singing about, whatever the sentiments are in the song, I’m just thinking about that.
The singer and host of The Daniel O’Donnell Show on PBS, who turned 60 in December 2021, is still going strong and plans to sing till the end of his life, he tells the Record Here are excerpts from a telephone interview with O’Donnell as he was prep ping for his Canadian tour.
Oh, it’s terrific I think the nicest part is that, up until now (since COVID 19), I haven’t met
Oh, I’m just singing the song Just enjoying the song I suppose I am blessed really that I get to pick my own material whatever I want to sing, I just sing. I’m never really thinking of the words be cause any time I think of the words, I forget them ... Just sing, and from somewhere it comes I don’t know where it comes from, but it comes.Thanks
be to God
As long as I’m able, of course. I don’t want to be singing when I’m not re ally set to sing I hope that never happens.
When you sing on stage, what’s going on in your mind?
people at the shows Well, last year, we did a tour, but we didn’t meet anybody But I’ve just decided this year, I’ll do the meet and greet after the show again Of course, we have to be mindful a bit careful But I enjoy the interaction with and meeting people after the shows
