With no new talks planned until Friday, commuters face continued disruption as strike action drags on. ATU Local 1587 president Rob Cormier told Global News he had hoped to meet on Wednesday and did not understand the decision to wait until Friday. He said just one day of talks had been scheduled so far.
Cormier said he hoped Metrolinx would come to the table “with something serious” because his members would “like to end this” soon and get back to work.
