CUPE local 829, however, has 250 workers awaiting a deal with Medicine Hat Public School Division after 235 of 274 ballots rejected a three per cent yearly raise over four years. The union says nine settled deals will shape Medicine Hat negotiations and notes controversy over executive administration after the February agreement.
