Strike Readiness Education Sessions for Treasury Board Members

PSAC North is offering virtual Strike Readiness Education Sessions for Treasury Board members in all three territories who want to learn more about strike basics and how members can prepare for the next steps.

The best way to avoid a strike is to be prepared for one. When members are informed, organized, and ready to support their bargaining teams, it strengthens our collective power and helps increase pressure on the Employer at the bargaining table.

These one-hour virtual sessions are designed to help members understand strike fundamentals, prepare for potential next steps, and ask questions about what a strike could mean in practice.

Participants will learn what a strike is, explore different types of strike action, and discuss common myths and misconceptions. The session will also cover strike pay, strike structures and roles, how members can build support in their workplaces, and what members can do now to prepare.

The session will conclude with current updates, key messages, and next steps, with time for questions as available.

Please note: Treasury Board strike votes are expected to take place from November 16, 2026 to January 22, 2027. These sessions are not part of the strike vote process and are not intended to tell members how to vote.

SV Members: SV members chose binding arbitration as their dispute resolution route. This means they cannot take strike action this round; any unresolved issues will be decided by an arbitrator. However, SV members often share workplaces with members of other bargaining groups, so understanding the strike process and how members can support one another remains valuable.
