Going on the record defending why your government isn't offering a fair deal by inflating the previous deal by 5% isn't a good negotiation tactic. @davidebybc.bsky.social people are struggling. And according to you, they already got this. Come back with a fair deal. globalnews.ca/news/9206272...

Was some pretty great protest signs on display by BCGEU members today.

Hearing from my coworkers at the Victoria Bike Valet downtown that they are FULL, as the BCGEU labour protest amasses large numbers to head to the Legislature. This is, in my recollection, the first time we've actually had to turn people away. #yyj

Thousands of striking BCGEU and PEA members and their supporters rally on the legislature lawn demanding a better wage offer. The PEA lead negotiator says the government latest offer “takes us backwards” when considering inflation and cost of living increases. #bcpoli

This isn't a small rally. The entire leg lawn is filled. 100%. #BCGEU #solidarity #generalStrike

Waiting for the employer.

I get that the news cycle is packed right now, but I just heard from a colleague at the Smithsonian that this is fully a GIANT SQUID BEING EATEN BY A SPERM WHALE and it’s possibly the first ever confirmed video according to a friend at NOAA 10 YEAR OLD ME IS LOSING HER MIND (a thread 🧵)

we dont need boycotts, these places have too much centralized money due to their monopolies. they can literally exist for 300 years without taking a real financial hit. we need a GENERAL. FUCKING. STRIKE.

Hey @davidebybc.bsky.social and @bcndpcaucus.bsky.social. The ratio of excluded management positions to union workers has crept up to 1-to-3. If we reduce it down to a more reasonable 1-to-4 ratio we would save $275m/yr. The current BCGEU proposal only ads $91m/yr. 🤯 #bcgeu #solidarity #strike

This might be niche but... Is Charles Demers on the BC gov bargaining committee because their offer is a joke. #BCGEU #DadJoke #FairDealNow #BCGEUStrike

I'm not the best at math. But if you're already paying someone a salary to do something, hiring a contractor to do that exact same work sounds like you're spending more money, not saving it. #BCPoli globalnews.ca/video/114317...

I'm very saddened to learn about the passing of Merlyn Williams. He was one of the best story tellers I ever met. I especially liked the one about the wood thief in Yellowknife woodyard. He was a real character and will be missed by many. My condolences to his family. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...
