Three day strike at the Port of Montreal as of July 27

Please be advised that the Maritime Employers Association has announced that the longshoremen’s union will once again carry out pressure tactics with a 72-hour strike at the Port of Montreal, from July 27 to July 31 at 6:59am.  All terminals will be affected except for Oceanex services and the grain terminals.

The Maritime Employers Association still wishes to reach an agreement that will be mutually beneficial through negotiations, however the strike notice now forces them to consider different options.

OEC is continually monitoring the situation and will share more details information as soon as it becomes available.
