The Canadian Association of Professional Employees (CAPE) announced today that a tentative agreement has been reached with the Library of Parliament for the Analyst group.

After more than a year of negotiations, the CAPE LoP bargaining team reached an impasse in negotiations with the employer. The parties were unable to agree on several key issues including, most notably, on wages.

The Library of Parliament bargaining team met the Employer in October for a two-day session and in December for a half-day session.

We are pleased to inform you that negotiations have begun for the renewal of the LoP collective agreement which expired on June 16, 2022.
