Les cols bleus de Montréal votent pour la grève
AI Article Summary

Montreal's blue-collar workers overwhelmingly voted to strike, with 98% support in favor during an extraordinary general meeting. Negotiations with the employer have stalled due to disagreements on salary offers, work-life balance, and privatization of services. The strike could lead to disruptions in public services in Montreal, particularly with a planned strike at the Montreal Transit Corporation (STM). The blue-collar union represents around 6,600 workers in various public sectors.
