Border workers start voting on tentative deal this week

The union that represents 9,000 workers at Canada's border has announced its members will vote on a tentative deal starting on Thursday.

The ratification vote starts June 20 and will end at noon on July 4.

The Public Service Alliance of Canada and the Treasury Board reached a tentative deal last week, potentially ending the possibility of long delays at border points across the country.

While 90 per cent of those workers are deemed essential and can't legally strike, they can take part in job action.

Members of PSAC-CIU can find more information about the vote online.
