Canada’s Labour Minister proposes 90-day mediation to resolve contract dispute between Maritime Employers Association and the longshoremen’s union.

Longshore workers at the Port of Montreal have launched an “indefinite” overtime strike.

The overtime refusal is aimed at further intensifying the labour standoff as talks between the union and the Maritime Employers Association (MEA) remain unresolved.

The strike at Montreal’s Viau and Maisonneuve terminals ended today, but negotiations between MEA and CUPE 375 remain in a deadlock.

The Port of Montreal strike has halted 40% of container handling, causing a buildup of containers, including vital food, pharmaceutical, and medical supplies.

Longshoremen at the Port of Montreal began a three-day strike on Monday, impacting the Viau and Maisonneuve Termont terminals until Thursday morning.
