    Written by Ethan Bernard

    Canadian union Unifor kicked off negotiations with the Detroit 3 automakers today, with its president saying the “talks will be the most consequential and closely watched in decades.”

    “The 18,000 Unifor members covered by these collective agreements head into negotiations with similar challenges to what workers are facing across the industrial sector,” Lana Payne, Unifor national president, said in a statement on Thursday.
