Strike ends with union win at Covered Bridge Potato Chips in Canada
Last month we appealed to you to send messages in support of UFCW Canada members at Covered Bridge Potato Chips on strike for union recognition and a first collective agreement. The fight has ended successfully with union members ratifying a first collective agreement on May 24, putting an end to the five month strike and a two year struggle at the Wakefield, New Brunswick snack food processor.
The three-year agreement achieved all of the major goals of the members including seniority provisions, job protection language, and wage and benefit gains.
The union has warmly thanked all those who supported their long struggle.
