WINNIPEG Bus drivers with the Winnipeg School Division won a fair wage package from an arbitrator. This news comes after the drivers went on strike in September following months of negotiations between the school division and the United Food and Commercial Workers Union Local 832 (UFCW), the union representing the drivers. According to the UFCW, the drivers spent nearly 90 days on the picket lines. CTV News Winnipeg previously reported the main issue was Bill-28 or the Public Sector Sustainability Act (PSSA), which the Manitoba government passed in 2017, but never proclaimed into law. In June 2020, a Manitoba judge ruled against Bill 28, and the province is appealing the decision.
