May 2005

The Minister of Industry has signed off on the collective agreement. It is now scheduled to go before and be signed by the Governor-In-Council on May 10. If it is signed by the GIC on that date, we will try and arrange a signing date for the week of May 16. Once it is signed by the RCEA and NRC, the employer has 90 days to implement the terms of the new agreement, including retroactive pay.
