The Canada Border Services Agency may be seeing strike action after a 96% in favor vote.

Much like the rail strike discussed previously, this could have severe effects on agriculture and trade in the nation.

Job action by CBSA personnel in 2021 nearly brought commercial cross-border traffic to a standstill, causing major delays at airports and borders across the country and a marathon 36-hour bargaining session to reach an agreement.

The union says workers will be in a legal strike position in June, which is also when mediation sessions are scheduled to begin.

CBSA workers have been without a renewed contract for over 2 years.
