LABRADOR CITY, N.L. — Iron Ore Company of Canada workers in Labrador City, N.L., have ratified a new five-year contact to end a strike that lasted nine weeks.
The United Steelworkers Union says about 80 per cent of the workers who voted cast ballots in favour of the new agreement.
The union says more than 1,300 members of two locals will return to work over the next several days.
More than 300 other workers at the company’s port and railway operations in Sept-Iles, Que., will vote on a similar offer on Tuesday.
