The International Longshore and Warehouse Union Canada issued 72-hour strike notice on Wednesday, which would allow members to start job action as soon as Saturday.

Contingency plans are being put together for Ogden Point in case port workers take job action in coming days to back contract demands.

This sector has been estimated by previous studies to be worth more than $130 million to the local economy. About 330 ship visits were originally scheduled to stop at Odgen Point this season. Vessels were estimated to be carrying 850,000 passengers and crew. In a joint statement, federal Labour Minister Seamus O’Regan and Transport Minister Omar Alghabra said they support the collective bargaining process and urged both sides to hash out a deal at the bargaining table.
