Ford workers strike enters ninth day as talks stall
A UAW source says Ford will likely modify its three year contract offer this week but settlement and ratification will take at least a week more. Head-to-head talks continued a fourth day with little progress as 170,000 Ford hourly workers in 22 states remain off the job. The strike also idled Canadian plants, with 2,800 workers laid off and 4,400 of 14,000 in Canada soon to be idled. Ford has not commented on talks amid union demands over wages health care pensions and paid time off to create new jobs.
