The federal government is facing growing pressure to legislate striking B.C. port workers back to work.
On Wednesday evening, the union representing longshore workers in British Columbia rescinded a 72-hour strike notice that it had posted earlier in the day, prompting concerns the province’s ports could be shut down again by Saturday.
“For Hyundai alone, they have 15,000 cars sitting at the port waiting to be delivered,” said Kot. “They keep building the cars, and so if we can’t get this port issue sorted out then we could lose Canada production for those auto dealers.” “My patience has run out,” said Omar Alghabra, the federal Minister of Transportation, hinting at intervention early Wednesday morning.“Justin Trudeau must do his job and end this strike because of the cost to businesses and Canadians,” said Pierre Pollievre. “We’re calling on him to deliver a plan to end this strike in the next 24 hours.”Sign up for the CHEK Now daily email newsletter to get breaking news and the day's top stories sent to your email.
