After many sessions of negotiations, the CFIA-S&A Group bargaining team is pleased to announce that we have reached a tentative agreement with the CFIA.

The bargaining team worked hard on your behalf to ensure that S&A members’ salaries will be comparable to those of the rest of the public service.
