The record turnout and overwhelming strike mandate by LCBO
workers sent a strong message to Premier Doug Ford and the employer that LCBO workers are
not backing down in their fight for a strong future for the
LCBO.
As LCBO workers prepare for a potential strike, their bargaining
team is back at the table this week with the LCBO to let them know
exactly what they need to offer to avoid strike action.
Hornick and MacLeod will provide an update on the timeline for a
potential strike and the workers' core demands.
