Negotiations for your next No Frills contract began on March 30, 2016 as your union negotiating committee and the company exchanged contract proposals.
Your bargaining committee is led by Local 1000A Executive Director Paul Docherty, with support from Regional Directors Don Taylor (Central Ontario), Roland Lapins (Eastern Ontario), servicing staff and rank-and-file members who work part-time and full-time at different No Frills stores across Ontario.
Your bargaining committee had met earlier on March 8 and 29, 2016 to review the proposals and the bargaining process.
Your bargaining committee is committed to working hard to achieve the best contract possible but we cannot do it all on our own. To achieve a fair deal, your negotiating committee needs your support, unity and participation.

Your negotiating committee will meet again on April 18 and 19, 2016 to prepare our response to the company’s proposals. Negotiations will resume the week of April 25, 2016.
These negotiations affect approximately 11,000 Local 1000A members working at 148 No Frills stores and Guildwood Valumart. Your union is participating in solidarity bargaining with UFCW Canada Local 175 & 633 with four No Frills stores and UFCW Canada Local 247 with 11 No Frills stores.
