“We have agreed to meet again on Saturday” says Holler.

She says full picket lines remain in place,  and there will be some  reinforcements from other parts of the  country arriving to  offer support,  including some from the Maritimes.

The UNBC Faculty Association has been on the picket line  for a week now, pressing for increased wages.

Reinforcements coming in from other parts of the country. So some overpaid government employees from elsewhere using their tax payer funded sick leave to go for a union holiday in BC.

I doubt if anyone came from the Maritimes to offer support for this dispute. More likely they were in the area visiting, or as tourists, and will spend a day on the line.
