⁦CIU-SDI⁩ ⁦workers deserve a respectful bargaining process, it would have been good to ask a question today if the Conservatives did not block ⁦Question Period. ⁦Anita Anand⁩ please have Treasury Board officials bargain in good faith! youtube.com/shorts/Y311fSv…

As the PSAC-AFPC-CIU-SDI Negotiator for Border Services Officers I’ve seen first hand the dramatic effects short staffing has had on CBSA workplaces & its hugely negative impact on public safety. Big kudos to Peter Julian for raising these critical issues today in Parliament.

“Senior officials in most law enforcement organizations have some level of frontline experience, that is not the case at CBSA. The result is an unparalleled disconnect between the upper echelons and the frontline.” Mark Weber speaking to SECU on Feb 26.

A car is stolen every 5 mins in Canada. #Autotheft in Quebec up 50%/Ontario up 48% since 2023. #Autotheft is a multifaceted problem. The former Conservative govt’s cuts of 1100 CBSA officers in 2014 & the current Liberal govt’s inaction 2 restore job loss is part of the reasons.

We need to act 2 fight rising levels of Auto-Theft linked 2 international organized crime.The National Summit should’ve included labour representatives 4 front-line workers engaged in this fight. Action against international crime syndicates & money laundering is essential.

The appointment of the PIC follows the bargaining team’s declaration of impasse after CBSA refused to budge on our key issues – including wage parity with the broader law enforcement community and access to telework psacunion.ca/fb-group-barga…

La création d’une CIP fait suite à notre déclaration d’impasse devant le refus de l’ASFC de se pencher sur nos principales revendications, dont le droit au télétravail et la parité salariale avec nos homologues d’autres organismes d’application de la loi. syndicatafpc.ca/groupe-fb-comm…

Since Justin Trudeau became Prime Minister, the number of CBSA frontline officers hasn't changed.

But the number of bureaucrats in CBSA middle management has doubled.

The Liberal approach to public safety is failing, and our communities are paying the price.
