Quebec provincial parks, employees reach agreement in principle
Quebec's provincial parks management says it has reached an agreement with its workers, lifting a strike notice that was set to begin on Friday. 'All establishments in the network will remain open for the long weekend of the national holiday and reservations will be honoured,' the Société des établissements de plein air du Québec (SEPAQ) wrote on its website. The main dispute between the two centred around wages, according to the Syndicat de la fonction publique et parapublique du Québec (SFPQ). President Christian Daigle had previously pointed out that many workers earn about $17 per hour, and the vast majority are seasonal employees. The union had asked for a 17.4 per cent wage increase over five years, the same as all government employees.
