Canfor Cantor labor talks stall at Chetwynd mill
Cantor applied to the Labour Relations Board to appoint a mediator, triggering a cooling off period of 10 to 20 days while Canfor and United Steelworkers seek a resolution. Canfor HR vice-president Onkar Athwal said talks were near an impasse after progress on money matters. The union says the latest Canfor offer fails to reflect sacrifices and wage needs amid six years of economic challenges.
