Service will be reduced and 10-full time employees will be laid off on December 26th due to a one percent budget increase cap.
Tom McGraw is the president of the local chapter of the Amalgamated Transit Union.
He tells CHSJ News he was hoping council would infuse some cash into the 900-thousand budget shortfall thanks to the higher provincial tax assessments.
But Mayor Ivan Court said any extra money would need to be spread out, which includes paying off the pension deficit.
He says the union will keep fighting and be a force in next year's municipal election.
However, council did pass a motion to take another look at the 1 percent budget cap.
