Manitoba Liquor and Lotteries casino workers have voted overwhelmingly in favour of striking if a deal with their employer isn't reached soon.

Unifor Local 144 Unit 37, which represents more than 750 workers at the McPhillips Station, Club Regent, and Shark Club casinos in Winnipeg, says 98 per cent of its members voted to strike if a contract isn't inked this month.

The union says it will begin job action just after midnight on December 23rd, noting wages are a focus in negotiations.
