Faculty at the Universite de Moncton have voted to accept a tentative agreement reached last week.
The faculty association said the agreement will guarantee wage parity with colleagues working at English-language universities around the province, putting an end to decades of discrimination.
The University’s Board of Governors will vote on it April 8.
Agriculture Minister Rick Doucet is looking to grow the province’s maple syrup industry.
Doucet says the industry is already expanding and the government wants to help it grow even more, saying it’s a vital part of the government’s growth strategy. The government recently allotted another 4,400 hectares for sugar production. The industry employs about 2,300 workers.
