The government moves to the final strike, which orders both sides to the bargaining table star-news.press/wp

The Canadian government interfered in the Canada flight, forcing both sides at the bargaining table, as hundreds of flights were suspended this week.

The Minister of Employment Patty Hagdo ordered the binding arbitration between the Canadian Airlines and the Canadian Federation of Public Employees (CUPE), which represents more than 10,000 Air Canada Air, hours after the strike began on Saturday morning.

“Despite the great support from the government, these parties have not been able to resolve their differences in a timely manner,” Hadjo said in a statement.

The country’s largest airline says the strike will affect about 500 flights a day.

Hadju summoned Article 107 of the Labor Law in Canada to bring the parties to the table.

In a statement issued by X, CUPE said that the liberal party in Canada was “violating the rights of the Charter” and putting the intervention a “terrible precedent”.

The airline said it had suspended all flights, including those under the Air Canada Rouge budget, and advised the influential customers not to travel to the airport except with a different airline.

Air Canada said that this will disrupt travel plans for about 130,000 passengers per day.

The flight attendants call for higher salaries and pay for work when the planes are on the ground.

The strike in effect entered at 00:58 EST (04:58 GMT) on Saturday, although Air Canada began expanding its operations before that.

The flight attendants will occupy the major Canadian airports, where the passengers were trying to secure new reservations early in the week.

Air Canada, which flies directly to 180 cities worldwide, said it has “suspended all operations” and that it “highly advised the affected customers not to go to the airport.”

He added that Jazz Air Canada, Pal Airlines and Air Canada Express were not affected.

“Air Canada strongly regrets the impact of the strike on customers,” he said.

By Friday night, the airline said it had canceled 623 flights affecting more than 100,000 passengers, as part of the end of operations before the strike.

In contract negotiations, the airline said that it offered a 38 % increase in flight attendants in total compensation over a period of four years, with a 25 % increase in the first year.

Cope said that the offer was “less than inflation, without market value, less than the minimum wage”, and it will still leave unpaid airlines for a few hours of work, including climbing and waiting at airports before flights.

The Union and the airline publicly circulated that each other’s willingness to reach an agreement.

Earlier this month, 99.7 % of the employees represented by the Union voted in favor of a strike.

CUPE confirmed that it was negotiating in good faith for more than eight months, but Canada Air instead sought the government’s arbitration.

“When we stood strongly, Canada did not reach the table in good faith,” Al -Ittihad said in a statement to its members. “Instead, they called on the federal government to intervene and take these rights away.”
