Excerpts

Some 12,000 workers in childcare centres will be asked to vote on a strike mandate in November.

...

Quebec tabled its offers to childcare workers last April. It is facing a shortage of childcare workers and is therefore trying to optimize the use of those already on the job.

Salary, leave, and workload are among the issues in dispute.

Negotiations have not broken down, however. The parties are continuing to negotiate, and dates have been set for October and November.
