The deal includes a 10.2 per cent wage increase over four years.

“Our members spoke to us loud and clear that wages were a priority, We tried our best to get them the best deal we could possibly put on the table,” said Delbridge.  “We feel they deserve better, but they ratified this agreement that we put before them.”

The agreement must now be ratified by City Council.
