From completing the preparation phase and hosting base town halls to officially serving Notice to Bargain and securing early tentative agreements, this episode outlines where we are, what’s been achieved, and what lies ahead.
In this episode, you’ll hear about:
• The impact of member engagement and townhall discussions
• What “Notice to Bargain” means under the Canada Labour Code

• Early wins and tentative agreements at the table
• The tone, progress, and next steps in negotiations
This round of bargaining is centered on respect, fairness, and compensation that truly reflects the value of WestJet Cabin Crew.
