Farmers and Failed Negotiations

Local C-E-P workers are back on the picket line today.

Negotiations between the Union and Farmers Dairy have come to a standstill.

Brett Whynott held a sign on the corner of Victoria Road and York Street in Bridgewater today

Last week he was optimistic about the talks taking place.

“They have made quite a bit of progress to hopefully ending this thing soon. There are still some issues that they haven't completely settled on. But its definitely looking better,” says Whynott.

Whynott now says he's not sure why the negotiations have 'fallen apart'.

C-E-P workers have been off the job since July 10th.
