Manitoba NDP faces clash with builders over floodway plan
Manitoba's NDP government moves to impose a Master Labour Agreement on floodway contractors and require all workers to join a union and pay dues. The Manitoba Heavy Construction Association reports most member firms are non union, while leaders accuse the premier of pressuring for compulsory membership as the project, worth 660 million, prepares to begin in 2000. The dispute involves the Floodway Expansion Authority and the Liberal and Progressive Conservative responses.
