Pickets walk the line for fair deal in five communities

CALGARY — AUPE President Dan MacLennan joined information picketers on the line in Calgary Dec. 3 as direct employees of the provincial government showed their support for their bargaining committee in the current round of wage-reopener negotiations.

About 350 government employees braved flying snow and cold temperatures in Calgary to take part in the spirited information picket. Picketers also walked the line Dec. 3 in Grande Prairie, Peace River, Slave Lake and High Prairie.

More information pickets are planned Thursday, Dec. 4, in Edmonton, Red Deer, Lethbridge, Medicine Hat and St. Paul.
