Members of a union representing more than 80,000 health care workers in Quebec have voted against a tentative deal for a new collective agreement with the province.

The Fédération interprofessionnelle de la santé du Québec, commonly known as the FIQ, says 61 percent of members who participated in an online vote that ended at midnight rejected the deal.
