The four organizations that represent workers in early childhood centers, namely the FSSS, FIPEQ, SQEES and the Steelworkers all reached an agreement with Quebec, Wednesday, one after the other.

In addition, in a message to its members, the Federation of Health and Social Services, affiliated with the CSN, announces the return to work next Monday, even if its members have not yet expressed their views on the agreement. However, she said on Wednesday that the strike would continue, as long as the members did not speak out.

“As soon as the national results are known, we will announce the return to work for Monday, December 13,” he wrote in the message to members on Facebook.

Some members were also irritated by the fact that the CSN seemed to assume the votes of its members and made it known on the Facebook page.

At the Federation of Early Childhood Workers, affiliated with the CSQ, which is not on strike, meetings will begin on Saturday and the result should be announced early next week.
