The provincial government has said controversial bonuses to executives at Community Living BC were rolled into salaries because contracts cannot be broken.
That has one labour leader scratching her head.
BC Teachers Federation president Susan Lambert says the province hasn’t had any problem breaking contracts in the past.
“Of course, governments shredded our collective agreements in 2002,” she says, and they again threatened to break agreements with Bill 22.
She says she doesn’t understand the double standard.
“I do know that there seems to be quite a personal vendetta on the part of the premier.”
Lambert calls the difference in treatment between government-paid executives and government workers “inexplicable.
