Under pressure from Brian Pallister’s government, the University of Manitoba is trying to freeze its workers’ wages even though the president previously criticized Pallister for interfering in collective bargaining.
Last week, PressProgress reported Pallister’s government sent a letter telling UofM President Michael Benarroch to ensure “no compensation increases occur during the 2020/21 year” and find “workforce expenditure budgetary reductions of 2.5%.”
