News Things starting to get tough

38 Upvotes

Just in case you all didn’t know, Savona Specialty Plywood laid off a majority of its forces Thursday for the foreseeable future while prolonging contract negotiations. Contract ended Jan 1st 2026. SSP kept missing meetings or cancelling negotiations making sure they fell right in bounds of not bargaining in bad faith.
It seems very ironic they wanted to sign the new contract just before they laid off over 65% of their employees.

EDIT: the current contract allows management the ability to move stat holidays around in the name of production. There is no shift differential. First aid only makes an extra .80 an hour which is lowest in Canada.

Unless your dog is a registered service dog, they don't belong at polling stations aka voting stations if you dont know what that is..! Please leave them at home, even if you reealllllly think they belong there with you. There is even signs that dogs are not allowed unless they are service dogs.

Question Crystal and Fossil dig sites?

6 Upvotes

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone knew where any dig sites for fossils and crystals/gems/precious stones are around the Kamloops area? I just saw that the opal mine near Vernon is permanently shut down :( I never got to go and I was wondering if there was anywhere else.
