York Region Bus strike will continue

Would this be allowed to continue in Toronto -- I think not!

York Region won't intervene in transit strike

BY KEVIN CONNOR ,TORONTO SUN

NEWMARKET - York Regional Council is refusing to ask the province for back-to-work legislation to end the YRT and Viva transit labour dispute.

“York Region wants a fair deal for bus drivers and mechanics but not at the expense of taxpayers,” chairman Bill Fisch said Friday.

“The reality of the unions current wage demands would mean a $26 annual increase for the typical York Region property taxpayer, or an additional 45-cent fare increase for transit riders.”
