THE FACTS OF NATIONAL POLICE FEDERATION

• As police officers we are trained to engage and
  overcome both the legitimate and perceived
  threats to the public we are sworn to protect.
  Today, members of the RCMP face a new threat the
  ability for our employers, the Commissioner and
  Treasury Board, to unilaterally roll back wages
  and/or benefits with no opposition. This threat
  will become a reality without a collective voice
  to speak for members on terms and conditions of
  employment like pay, benefits, promotions,
  transfers etc. This sets us back 50 years in
  terms of labour relations with our employers. We
  need to react accordingly to contain and
  eliminate this threat to the general membership,
  we need the National Police Federation.

WE must act NOW. Together not only can we contain
this threat, but we can push forward and ensure
that the members of this organization are
adequately supported, represented and compensated
while serving the public they have sworn to
protect

• These are the Quick Facts

January 16, 2015 the Supreme Court of Canada
(SCC) released its decision in MPAO v. Attorney
General of Canada. The SCC directed the Federal
Government to implement legislative changes,
within one year, to allow for members of the RCMP
to certify a bargaining agent. December 8th,
2015 the newly elected Federal Government applied
to the SCC for a 6 month extension to the one
year deadline in order to draft, table and pass
the required legislative changes to the Public
Service Labour Relations Act (PSLRA) to comply
with the MPAO decision.

• On January 16th, 2016 the Commissioner of the
  RCMP announced the creation of a new Member
  Workplace Services Program (MWSP) that will
  assist and guide members in the labour relations
  world as an interim model until a bargaining
  agent can be certified
• On March 9th, 2016 the Federal Government
  introduced Bill C-7 to comply with the SCC
  decision and has until May 15th, 2016 to have C-7
  receive Royal Assent.

The simple problem with the MWSP designed,
implemented and managed exclusively by RCMP
management is that members have no collective
voice it is individual assistance/guidance
only, there is no collective. Members will have
no national representation on issues such as pay,
health benefits, occupational safety and NCO
promotion process to name a few. This takes us
back several decades. This MWSP does not provide
meaningful labour relations in any way and the
membership cannot sit idly by, we must stand up
with the right organization that has the
necessary experience, passion and integrity.

• As members, we are trained to take action we
  have been placed in a corner and there is only
  one option to represent your regional, national,
  contract and federal interests - we need to take
  action and ensure that there is a voice for the
  membership of the RCMP at all tables that discuss
  terms and conditions of employment. Every day
  that passes, gives RCMP management the
  opportunity to roll back and change benefits
  without opposition. We need to act now!
• We are the voice that provides the experience we
  need. Join the National Police Federation now!
