USB, APPUSB at impasse after negotiations with mediator present

Université de Saint-Boniface and the Association des professeurs et professionnels de l’Université de Saint-Boniface (APPUSB) recently spent two days negotiating with a mediator present but did not come to an agreement. APPUSB said that despite its negotiating committee’s efforts, the negotiations are at an impasse. The union says that it is willing to resume negotiations, but APPUSB’s communications committee lead Phi-Vân Nguyen commented that the two parties are far from making a deal. Nguyen said that the union’s three demands are salary parity with English-language counterparts, a more balanced teaching load, and student and professor involvement in decision-making at all levels of the university.
