Air Canada Strike - Tentative Deal Reached

[scottbee]

Air Canada and striking customer service and sales staff have reached a tentative deal, the union representing the workers confirmed Thursday.

The Canadian Auto Workers have called a press conference for 2 p.m. ET in Toronto to discuss the deal. Labour Minister Lisa Raitt will speak to reporters at 1:15 p.m. ET in Ottawa.

Word of the deal came just minutes after the Conservative government introduced legislation Thursday to force the union back to work.

Glad to hear the positive news as there were quite a few concerned people with upcoming travel plans.

I can breathe a sigh of relief. Some of my trip plans (including a transatlantic crossing) in two weeks time includes Air Canada. I'm less stressed out today.:)
