The Longueuil transit system’s bus drivers, represented by the Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE), are still in ongoing negotiations to renew their collective agreement. Despite intense mediation discussions that continued late into Monday evening, the two parties have not yet agreed on the terms.
The potential strike that was planned for this week has been temporarily averted as the Administrative Labour Tribunal intervened and suspended the strike, deeming the proposed essential services by the union inadequate. While the threat of strike action looms, both sides remain committed to reaching a resolution through negotiation for the future collective agreement.
