Bus Strike Averted
Talks between the Amalgamated Transit Union and the City of Thunder Bay have resulted in a last second tentative deal set to keep buses on the road. Local ATU President Sheila Kivisto says talks lasted throughout the night and that now its a matter of having the deal gain the approval of drivers and city council. Kivisto adds that if the deal holds up Monday morning commuters shouldn't notice any disruption in service. Kivisto is recommending acceptance.
