Union, employer reach tentative agreement to end B.C. port strike
Union, employer reach tentative agreement to end B.C. port strike
It's weird how they only interviewed industry and business groups for this.
What's even weirder is this article is entirely devoid of actual information.
It did not mention anything about the strike aside from its impact on shipping and freight.
Nothing on what the workers wanted to accomplish, nothing on what actually resolved the strike, nothing about the strike at all.
Just some stats on how many containers need to be processed, how little rail cargo there was compared to this time last year, and some talk about maintaining Canada's reputation for receiving and distributing goods from our ports.
I'd love if any mainstream news actually had a pro-worker agenda and celebrated the formation of unions, and the benefits of collective bargaining.
This was supposed to be deleted, there's a statement right at the top from the union, I just skimmed over it. They're just being very tight lipped as of the publication of this.
That being said, you're right that they're focusing on the wider impact instead of the workers, which I guess they feel is more impactful to general Canadians, although I'd say it's not.
