A petition has been launched, calling for paramedics to be included with fire and police when it comes to collective bargaining.
Currently, paramedics and dispatchers are covered under a separate act from police and fire.
Paramedic Josh Henshaw started the petition, which has been registered with Elections BC.
He says the current bargaining structure doesn’t make sense, given the service that paramedics provide.
