Going to spool up the podcast for season 9. 25 years with the City. This is going to be a fun year. Bargaining is coming.

My take on the Alberta politics. Wow.

Lets talk about the uniform clauses.

We will have elections starting in the new year. If you have your meetings in you will be eligible. With the upcoming meeting being a bargaining year, it will be a big election I am sure of it.

Dec 5, 2025. 4pm - 8pm. Should be a great time.

Online meetnigs are still not on the table. Not sure it will happen in 2026.

Call the hall and let them know you want online meetings.

Go to www.cityworker.ca if you are interested in seeing the video that matches with this episode. Claiming your HSA is easy and many don't know how to even do it. With the welness account coming figuring out how much you want to place in either account is important in maximizing your benefits with the employer.

It has been a while since the last video on this. Many have picked up how to do this and I am very happy to see people getting what they can out of their benefits. The app doesn't work just yet, but the website is checked and verified.

Search HSA H&DP WA 2025 on youtube to find the video.

I got my shot, and not even out of pocket. $119.89 at Costco. If you want it, you can know it was covered by a member with level 2 extended health coverage. Shame on the UCP for not covering it, but the employer has stepped up to the plate and covered it through the metrics availiable. Greenshield will pay for it without you even paying out of pocket. It's not 100% so be prepared for a small fee.

What happens when a government decides to stream roll through bad bills? You get a bunch of people talking recall and Gernal Strikes. What does that mean. In order for a general strike to even mean anything a bunch more industry and people have to get on board. Do we have it at this point? I don't know, but I am not sure we do. We need to get there and the UCP might be what we need to push it to a go level.
