New Brunswick

PSAC members in New Brunswick dressed in black on December 4th to mark the first hearing date of the PIC. Once the PIC releases its reports for the various PSAC units, the union’s respective bargaining teams will meet to discuss the recommendations.  Traditionally, following this, PSAC’s teams and government representatives have returned to the table to resume negotiations. We expect the PIC reports to be issued in 2020.

When the Greater Moncton Human Rights (GMHR) committee was looking for a different way to recruit and engage members, they decided to open a contest to reach out to more PSAC members.  After partnering with the Moncton Inspire Festival, an international non-profit street arts festival, and finding some PSAC members who had talent, they were ready to create their project.  First, the contest was asking members to answer a question by submitting, images, pictures, texts, poems, etc.  The question was:   What does equity groups within the PSAC means to you?
