The union representing 9,000 Canada Border Services Agency workers says some job actions began Friday as bargaining with the government continued.

“Our bargaining team representing CBSA employees has been in mediation with CBSA and Treasury all night and through to this morning, and we’re giving them a bit more time to negotiate at the table,” the Public Service Alliance of Canada and its Customs and Immigration Union said in a Friday morning statement.
