halifax typographical union

Dear Mayor Mike Savage, the dismissive and perfunctory manner in which you breezed past our striking journalists today was appalling. Strong newspapers and strong journalists are an important part of any community.

At one minute past midnight Friday, The Chronicle Herald and its 61 unionized newsroom employees will be in a legal strike or lockout position.

In a news release Friday, the Halifax Typographical Union says "we believe it’s clear that busting the union is the Herald’s primary goal during this process."
