Strike saga continues in Montreal: Dockers start overtime ban

Dockers at Canada’s largest East Coast port in Montreal are due to start an unlimited overtime ban from 7 am (local time) today (10 October) after claiming that employers are “dragging their feet” in negotiations for a new contract.

The Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE), which represents around 1,200 dockers at the Port of Montreal (CUPE 375), said that port workers have been without a collective agreement since 31 December last year.
