RCMP Labor Bill Edges Toward Change After Committee Action
The Senate committee removed exclusions that blocked RCMP members from negotiating topics such as transfers appointments appraisals probation and demotions as part of a new labour-relations regime. The moves aim to give rank and file officers grievance rights and broaden allowed bargaining topics while preserving the commissioner s powers. Public Safety Minister Goodale and Treasury Board President Brison await Senate third reading as the bill returns to the House of Commons for consideration.
