WINDSOR, ONT.— First Student Canada has served Unifor with formal notice that they will lock out members next Monday, Sept. 15 at 12:01 a.m.

“We will not be intimidated by this company’s bullying tactics,” said Unifor National President Lana Payne. 

“Our members will not accept an offer that underpays and undermines them.”

In its letter, the company also made it clear that benefits for the drivers will be suspended at the same time. The outstanding issue is drivers’ wages.
