OTTAWA, ON: The Canadian Taxpayers Federation is calling on members of Parliament to speak out against the Union of Taxation Employees and the Public Service Alliance of Canada’s pay demands.
“When Canadians are cutting back on groceries because of inflation, MPs absolutely cannot look taxpayers in the eyes and tell them to pay for huge raises in the bureaucracy,” said Franco Terrazzano, Federal Director of the CTF. “Union negotiators are demanding 30 per cent pay hikes over three years and 14 per cent annually when many Canadians are relying on food banks.”
