RUTH BONNEVILLE / WINNIPEG FREE PRESS LOCAL - transit picket Chris Scott, Union President of The Amalgamated Transit Union local 1505 holds an information picket in front of the Fort Rouge Garage with many union members walking the picket line to "practice" their stance on talks, Wednesday. “The rally serves as a demonstration of the union’s resolve to secure fair wages and uphold working conditions that prioritize the well-being of transit workers. Despite nine months of negotiations, conciliation between ATU Local 1505 and the employer has reached an impasse, leaving no mutually agreeable terms to present to the membership for a vote.” (Quote from the assignment on sched) October 11th, 2023
