VANCOUVER — Maritime employers says the impact of the B.C. port strike is spilling over internationally, as U.S. port workers refuse to handle containers rerouted from Vancouver to Seattle.
The BC Maritime Employers Association says the move further damages the"reliability and competitiveness of West Coast ports up and down" as the work stoppage drags on for a 10th day.
The workers and their employer held a round of bargaining over the weekend, the first talks since negotiations collapsed one week ago, but neither side is saying when, or if, more talks are planned. The employers association said in its statement Monday that economic repercussions have been escalating.
