The union representing striking workers at Crown corporations in Saskatchewan say “actions will escalate throughout the weekend.”
Unifor says in an email the union will distribute leaflets at SaskTel dealers across the province to encourage the public “to take their business elsewhere.”
It also says it will bolster the picket line at the Poplar River power plant in Coronach, and will only allow essential service workers to enter or leave.
The moves follow a decision by the province to refuse a union request to resolve an outstanding dispute over pay through binding arbitration.
