About this episode
A few hundred striking public sector workers marched through downtown Vancouver Wednesday to draw attention to their push for much higher wages. The BCGEU members were joined by those from other unions for a noon hour walk from the Vancouver Art Gallery to Jack Poole Plaza. The union says it’s prepared to escalate the strike action after rejecting the Eby government’s five per cent wage increase over two years. Finance Minister Brenda Bailey says it’s important to reach a fair deal but one that is fair for all British Columbians.
