Windsor Salt resumes negotiations

Windsor Salt and two unions representing 240 Unifor members will be back at the bargaining table Wednesday in hopes of ending a strike that began Feb. 17.


The resumption comes after the union leaders appealed to Premier Doug Ford and Labor Minister Monty McNaughton to get the company back to negotiating.


The union said the company, owned by Stone Canyon in the United States, wanted the right to contract out jobs before it would negotiate financial issues.


“This is not how we conduct business or negotiate contracts,” said national union president Lana Payne.
