Good evening all. 

 Negotiations went well today!  We went extremely late to get as much done as possible.  

 We will continue early in the morning but continuing with a ministry appointed mediator as there are some stumbling blocks. 

 I will send another update tomorrow as things progress!  

 We are close. 

 Stay strong, focus on your jobs!

 Next weeks pay will be on Wednesday June 23, a day earlier due to the Quebec stat holiday. 

 We will be scheduling a membership meeting at the end of June but the agenda will be the international elections nominations only. 

 On behalf of the local, we wish all the Dads, a Happy Fathers Day!
