City and CUPE Agree on Two Year Deal
There will be labor peace in the City of Kenora
for at least the next year and a half.
Kenora City Council has given tentative approval to a two year contract with the
Canadian Union of Public Employees on a deal retroactive to January 1st of this year.
The agreement includes a wage increase of 1.7 percent during each of the deal.
Mayor Dave Canfield suggests the contract is fair because its just over the cost of living.
Non-union staff and city councillors will also be getting similar increases.
