TTC strike avoided after last minute deal reached with union

- Averting a planned strike at midnight, the union representing nearly 12,000 Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) workers announced a last-minute framework settlement on Thursday evening, avoiding a crippling shutdown of buses, streetcars and subway trains.
"This is a fair deal that is affordable to the TTC and respectful of the important work the 11,500 members of ATU Local 113 do every day,” said in an official statement.”
The main sticking points for the union had been job security and benefits for active members and pensioners. The union says it will continue to work through the details to arrive at a fair and reasonable contract.
Details of the deal are not being released with the settlement still needing to be ratified by union members and the TTC board.
For commuters, full TTC services will proceed as planned on Friday.

Of course it was.
Good show everyone.
Thanks for showing up to drive a BUS for a 6 figure salary.
Please resume Toronto's great TTC service
LOL 0:01
average 83k to drive a bus is already pretty well paid. did they approve a deal for 100k now? the deficit gonna get bigger now with no money left for maintenance and improvements
Did you see the bonus the ceo got
@@jordencoles5313which CEO and how is that relevant?
@@ye333@flyaphs TTC CEO got an 18% raise going from 496k to 585k. When have you ever received an 18% increase in your salary
have you applied yet?
Watch, next they will increase the fares in a month or two.
Seems irrelevant considering the amount of people who either don't pay or think a transfer is a day pass
only about half pay anyway so what's it matter?
Fares increase bc of all the people who dont pay. Thank those thieves.
how can you ask for a raise when you're already being overpaid
if they're overpaid then why don't you apply??
Media needs to learn how contracts work. No deal has been made other than to an agreement to keep negotiating without a strike. The members never even voted on them doing that (giving them more time) and it's a common tactic in negotiating union contracts.
Here's reality. The ttc workers voted to strike. The ttc union stewards and union representative near strike time decide to negotiate in good faith and give them more time to negotiate b4 strike (going against its own members who voted strike 12 am). It's a very common tactic union's use to avoid actually striking and shouldn't be legal imo. I've had it happen to me twice from the steelworkers and we voted to strike. Why should 4 ppl get to throw that vote away cause of bargaining in good faith? Now I'm not saying it's 4 ppl simply speaking of my situation.
The union tries to scare the employer, the union folds and looks weak. Now I'm sure the ttc workers will get a decent deal cause they have good jobs period. However had they actually g9ne on strike they would have received an ever better offer. They failed to use their power, an injunction would have forced them back to work by Monday but still, they lost their power. The biggest thing is the employer fully knows of this tactic and played them in this situation. Of course they are gonna call their bluff cause unions bluff too much. They have played this perfectly, not negotiating like the deadline means anything. Why negotiate in good faith when they are bluffing and you don't have to. Employers will strong-arm you. You have to actually strike and then amazingly 30 minutes on strike oh look the employer has a new offer for you to vote to ratify. They had it the whole time of course but you'll never see that contract.
You are totally right they folded quickly, why wait down to the closing hour to negotiate to begin with, clearly the employer didn’t care weeks ago, so they should have still strike and get demands meet and a better deal, thats what a protest is about, you dont just settle right away, you have to show strength when the balls in your court
Why does the media turn off their comments on you tube, we need every one opinion
1:34. The ceo seemed very enthusiastic and nervous. Wouldn't be surprised if he had lower his own pay for the increase of income for ttc employees.
Those non union workers complain about the same things too 💰the only difference is no one hears their cry’s 😭
get a union

And strike yourself to the unemployment line.
TTC it's the blood vessels of Toronto.
Sanitation it's the big intestine.
Toronto Police: white cells/otherwise.
Toronto as an whole it's a body of living mega city.
TTC employees = holding rest of the customer/client commuters hostage. Lmao
This is the reason why we send our companies overseas , wages too high profit too low
The transit fair itself it's so much..
An Toronto police first year constable. Get paid $63k per year. An ttc worker get paid $70k per year.
The information it's different if count by hourly
I feel messed with
TTC Folded quick, still feel the deal might not be what the Voters expected
Someone is bluffing
1:27 the boston accent
Canada's largest work creation program.. continues .
TTC would have operated normally during the strike, the only disruption would have been the 24/h lines.
wrong!!! only wheel trans would be running all other transit vehicles would be parked.... picket lines don't get crossed
Communist ndp and unions have agreed 😂
Worst public transit system in the world and they get ANOTHER raise?
I continue to hear that the private sector pays for the public or union wages but last time I checked don’t union workers pay taxes too🤔
