We can't fix the public sector in one budget

Karim Bardeesy

From Thursday's Globe and Mail Published on Wednesday, Mar. 03, 2010 5:30PM EST

Co-operation, not confrontation, is the path to fiscal salvation

For a hint of the turmoil to come between Canada's public-sector workers and government, look to Europe.

The centrepiece of Ireland's recent budget was salary cuts across the board: Nurses, the national police force and parliamentarians were all caught in the dragnet. The British government is trying to trim its public payroll, while austerity measures aimed at resolving a debt crisis in Greece have led to riots. (More)

Public service bracing for cuts

By Kathryn May, Ottawa Citizen March 3, 2010

OTTAWA The Harper government targeted the public service with "aggressive" plans to freeze salaries, the operations of all departments and launch a major spending review that many predict will cut jobs and services to Canadians.

Civil servant unions pushing back on feared cuts to pensions

He said the union is getting calls from workers pleading to know whether they should retire now before pensions are cut. (More)
