The end of Toronto’s civic strike in sight

A mutual settlement has been reached between CUPE locals and the city of Toronto, said CUPE Local 79 spokesperson Ann Dembinski. The resolution will put an end to the city’s 36-day civic worker strike affecting garbage collection, ferry services, and city-run daycares. Details will be released once the agreement is ratified by union members and City Council. Information regarding the continuation of city services will be released in the upcoming days. “The agreements mean our employees can return to work and resume delivering the excellent public services Torontonians expect and deserve,” said Toronto Mayor David Miller. “The strike has been a difficult period for our city.”
