Montreal Transit Workers Refuse Overtime, Threaten Disruption
5.0
Montreal's 2,400 transit maintenance workers say they will refuse overtime hours from Dec. 9 to Jan. 11 amid an ongoing labour dispute. The transit agency said buses and Metro services will continue to operate but warned of potential disruptions given the strike's duration and earlier walkouts this year. The union says cutting overtime aims to pressure the employer toward a collective agreement before the holidays.
