In November 2018, Autobus Transco’s negotiations for the renewal of a collective agreement end as a new five-year contract is signed with Transco-CSN.
During negotiations in 2017 and 2018, more specifically during a strike by Transco employees, over 15,000 students on the Island of Montreal and their parents endured pressure tactics used by union employees and were forced to find alternative transportation so that the children could attend school.
Negotiations made the headlines, particularly as there was an industry-wide illegal strike throughout the province of Quebec, and a legal strike by over 330 school bus drivers in the region of Montreal.
A Fasken team led by Ronald McRobie acted for Autobus Transco in connection with these negotiations.
