COLLECTIVE BARGAINING BEGINS

Later today, the Toronto Police Services Board Bargaining Committee will have our first meeting with the Toronto Police Association’s (TPA) Bargaining Committee.

This is the second time that Dave Wilson, the TPA President and I have been in contract negotiations. The last time was 2005. I look forward to working with him and his committee on a contract that reflects the hard work of the TPA members.

At the end of the day, the TPSB wants a Toronto that is safe. We believe this is achieved through respect for our police service, taxpayers, the Chief and the TPA. We will keep this top of mind as we work to achieve the best possible contract for our officers.
Throughout the negotiations process, I will work to keep you informed of our progress. Click here for a media statement I sent out last night. Media Release
