On strike since April 24 in Longueuil and since May 1 in Bedford, 50 school bus drivers affiliated with Teamsters Local 106 ratified a new collective agreement this morning.

After several weeks on strike and faced with the indifference of the provincial government and the stubborn stance of publicly funded private school bus companies, more and more exhausted bus drivers from Autobus Campeau and Sogesco are considering career changes.

The 10 striking workers affiliated with Local 106 of the Teamsters Union at Autobus Campeau have just accepted the latest employer offer at 89%, thereby ending the strike.

Twenty school bus drivers, affiliated with Local Union 1791 of the Teamsters Union and employed by Autobus Magog in Estrie, voted in assembly on May 12 unanimously for a strike mandate.

Another 253 school bus drivers represented by Teamsters Local Union 106 have voted to authorize strike action in a move that may disrupt school bus service in the coming days. Among them, 56 drivers work on the South Shore of Montreal, while 197 drivers work in the Outaouais region.

Members' readiness to strike played a crucial role in achieving a negotiated settlement
