WINDSOR—Unifor is extremely disappointed that Windsor Salt has resorted to bargaining in the public. Such tactics are counterproductive and doomed to fail.

“Windsor Salt has yet again made it more difficult to reach an agreement to end the 132-day strike with these kinds of actions,” said Lana Payne, Unifor National President. 

“Our members have been on strike for 18 weeks. They deserve a fair collective agreement—not disrespect.

“The company clearly knows there are unresolved issues at table. They should work with us to resolve those issues instead of engaging in these tactics.

“Members of Local 1959 and 240 went on strike to protect good jobs and seek fair compensation and benefits. They’ve shown incredible solidarity and determination for months,” said Payne.

Unifor is Canada’s largest union in the private sector, representing 315,000 workers in every major area of the economy. The union advocates for all working people and their rights, fights for equality and social justice in Canada and abroad, and strives to create progressive change for a better future.
