A spokeswoman for the Canadian Union of Public Employees said members were voting on the latest offer between noon and 6 p.m. Sunday and results will be released after that.
RELATED: The Maritime Employers Association has announced that as of next week, it will no longer guarantee wages for longshoremen who are not working due to the ongoing unlimited, partial strike. The association says the strike poses a significant toll during an already difficult financial time.
If it comes to pass, workers will be locked-out at the country’s two largest ports. Port workers in British Columbia have been locked out since Monday in an ongoing contract dispute at the Port of Vancouver, the largest in Canada. The increases would bring a longshore worker’s total average compensation at the Port of Montreal to more than $200,000 per year at the end of the contract.
