The study by economist Jim Stanford, director of Vancouver’s Centre for Future Work, said hourly wages for longshore workers are similar to wages for other skilled industrial jobs.
About 7,400 members of the International Longshore and Warehouse Union Canada in Vancouver have been on strike since July 1. They say they're fighting for protections against contracting out work and automation, as well as pushing for higher wages.Nutrien Ltd., for example, said Tuesday it has curtailed production at its Cory potash mine due to the strike.
“We also know in British Columbia, where the port is, that port workers have seen increasing costs just like everybody else.”“And what we want is a long-term deal that's going to last and that's going to prevent disruptions like this from happening in the future. And those kinds of deals are reached at the bargaining table.”
He said he wanted a fair deal for the workers, taxpayers and consumers."We need to make sure this strike is over, work collaboratively together and let's start getting these goods flowing right across our country.”
