Back to work

As far as I can tell, it's only been covered in the Leader-Post's news summaries. But there's good news for Regina city workers:

Workers for the City of Regina are heading back to work this morning after a tentative deal was reached yesterday.

City manager Bob Linner says he'll take the details of the agreement back to the mayor and council.

The union will present the deal to the 16-hundred workers to vote on later today.

It'll be very interesting to see the details of the deal, particularly in light of the city's position last week that the sides were too far apart to warrant the appointment of a conciliator. But whatever the outcome (assuming that both sides accept the negotiated deal), it's good news for the city employees to be back at work.
