InsideToronto.com: York U. strike passes four-week mark
Talks have broken off between York University administrators and the union representing 3,300 contract faculty, teaching assistants and graduate assistants after coming back to the bargaining table with a provincial mediator for three days late last week.
Greg Long, the mediator from the Ontario Ministry of Labour, released a statement on Monday saying, “The parties remain far apart on the key issues in this dispute and that a settlement is not close in hand. Therefore, there are no further negotiations scheduled at this time.”
