Park Labor Disputes Unfolding Amid Regional District's Collective Bargaining Stalemate Over 100 workers at Metro Vancouver regional parks have gone on strike, bringing attention to the stalemate in collective bargaining negotiations between the Greater Vancouver Regional District Employees Union (GVRDEU) and the regional district.
The union, which represents about 700 workers, has been seeking a new collective agreement for 18 months.
The lack of progress in negotiations has caused frustration among workers, who have taken drastic measures by walking off the job indefinitely.
