Canada's Federal Workers Strike Over Wages, Causing Service Delays.

Roughly 155,000 federal workers in Canada, represented by the Public Service Alliance of Canada (PSAC), have gone on strike after failing to reach a deal for wage increases with the federal government. The strike involves the largest number of workers against a single employer in Canadian history and is expected to delay some federal services, including tax refunds and passport renewals. The Canadian government has presented a "fair, competitive offer" to the PSAC, including a 9% increase over three years, and negotiations are ongoing.
