Paramedics in Thunder Bay have a new two-year collective agreement.

About 90 workers with the Superior North EMS have voted to accept a new deal, which gives them a 1.5-per cent wage increase in each of the two years of the contract.

CAW Local 229 president Barb Maki says she is pleased with the deal, as many employers have been seeking wage freezes during these tough economic times.

The contract only impacts EMS workers based in Thunder Bay.

Superior North staff in the outlying region are still working on their own contract renewal.
