Crown prosecutors and family court Crown counsel in New Brunswick voted 99 percent in favor of strike action, it was announced Monday.
The vote came after more than a year of contract talks with N.B government as the “crisis” facing the province’s criminal justice system worsens, the New Brunswick Crown Prosecutors Association said in a press release.
Lawyers voted 99 percent in favour of strike action, citing persistent recruitment and retention issues as the main reasons for the strike.
