Veuillez noter que certaines nouvelles de transport international ainsi que les nouvelles américaines sont disponibles en anglais seulement.

The BCMEA and ILWU Local 514 met with the assistance of the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service (FMCS) on Saturday. The parties met separately with the FMCS and, based on discussions, no progress was made. On that basis, the FMCS concluded the mediation and no further meetings are scheduled.

In an effort to bring the negotiations to a close, the BCMEA provided a final offer to ILWU Local 514 on October 30.

ILWU Local 514 responded to the final offer with strike notice, followed by industry-wide strike action on Monday, November 4.

On November 7, ILWU Local 514 filed a complaint at the CIRB about the BCMEA’s conduct in bargaining. BCMEA denies any wrongdoing.
