Awwww, poor babies, I do the same work and just seen a dentist which will cost 4,000 dollars, zero coverage on a whoping 12.75 / hr, how much do all you nursing home workers pay for dental, prescriptions, how much pay do you all lose if you are sick and can't work, how about zero holidays because you can't afford to take a day off but still have to run a car to work, mine is 16 years old and each day it gets me there I feel lucky. I could go on and on but you all would not care a bit because its not you, greedy bunch of entitled babies, feel so bad for you's.

Past time that this whole issue was settled... Ultimately the ONLY ones who will suffer are the seniors who are at the mercy of both government and the workers... Caregivers cannot help but be impacted negatively by all of this dragging on and that includes the level of care they are able or willing to provide to our seniors..

They still have some leverage. Time for the workers to stop working overtime, stop covering shifts, etc....

What are the nursing home employees going to do now? This ruling will affect all unionized workers in New Brunswick. The teachers, the bus drivers who are in need of a new contract. The EMO's etc. It will be interesting to watch.

If you don't like your jobs, quit. See if you can get better pay elsewhere (you can't; at least not in NB). These unions are putting mammon over God.

Methinks you forgot that the British Queen is our de facto Head of State and that she is also the "Protector of the Faith" of the Church of England and she is on our money. Furthermore whereas the Charter clearly states the following we are stuck with that fictional entity N'ey Pas?

Court of Appeal ruling prevents nursing home workers from striking
Siding with province, court overrules previous judgment that allowed nursing home workers to strike
The City of Fredericton has halted any work on the Risteen building in downtown Fredericton for 60 days, so council can assess whether the property should be brought under the heritage preservation bylaw and its future decided by the heritage review board.
A temporary order to cease activity was issued to developer Gabriel Elzayat when his application to demolish the building was submitted.
"And if (councillors) elect to designate it, then the bylaw needs to be amended and it becomes part of the heritage bylaw area," said Juan Estepa, the manager of heritage and urban design with the city.
That could take months, said Estepa.
"Then it's up to the Preservation Review Board to consider the demolition request and any development that may happen on that property," he said.
The first cut stone building in New Brunswick, the Risteen building was built in the 1820s by Anthony Lockwood, surveyor general of New Brunswick.
It later became the Risteen Sash and Door factory, supplying many of the finishings to houses and buildings around the city.
Elzayat wants to build apartments on the site. He owns several buildings in the immediate area that are also expected to be part of the development. He did not wish to comment on the council order.
"This developer bought the property knowing that this was a potential situation, and it was a risk he was prepared to take," Estepa said.

Corrections
- A secondary headline incorrectly said that the heritage review board would consider the fate of the building. In fact, it's council that has 60 days to consider the building's future.Apr 26, 2019 1:56 PM AT

The ONLY reason they need to work overtime and shift cover is because of the ridiculous sick days and personal days policy they all get.

The median Nb salary is under $31000 a year.
As to your question, I will only tell you thst I am currently self employed. I’m responsible for finding my own work, pricing it so people will hire me and meeting deadlines. All with no benefits, no sick days and no pension, or even CPP payments for old age security. As well as no EI.
