British Columbia nurses reject a tentative agreement reached between their union and health employers, according to reports from Canada. The rejection follows a prior strike mandate voted on by members in May, when the union said more than 50,850 nurses took part and 98.2 per cent voted in favour of job action. After employers and the union reached a tentative deal, members held a second vote on whether to accept it. One outlet reports the rejection vote results in a 67 per cent margin against the tentative agreement. Together, the reports indicate that nurses remain opposed to the proposal and that the union’s earlier broad mandate to pursue job action continues to influence the outcome. The sources do not detail the specific terms of the rejected agreement or describe any next steps, but both agree on the core sequence: a strong May strike mandate, followed by a later vote rejecting a tentative contract offer.
