Union open to negotiating in B.C. port dispute as more federal involvement looms
The union representing about 7,400 workers in the ongoing British Columbia port labour dispute has issued a letter to employers, outlining what it is looking for in a new collective agreement while saying it is committed to negotiating a resolution.
Ashton says, however, that while a deal voted down by union members Friday included"progress... in addressing certain workforce-related matters," it did not provide protection for port workers as more maintenance work gets contracted out to third-parties. The letter comes as the union's latest rejection spurred calls for intervention from a number of business and political leaders. Parties including Alberta Premier Danielle Smith, the Business Council of Canada and the Canadian Federation of Independent Business all urged the federal government to legislate an end to the dispute.
