Ford Canada labor talks continue, key issue not met

Cost-savings talks between Ford Motor Co’s Canadian subsidiary and the Canadian Auto Workers union continued on Wednesday, but the union said Ford had so far failed to address its key issue, Reuters reported.
Some media reports said the negotiations had broken off, but both union and company officials denied this, the news service said. “We’re having some detailed back and forth and some exchange of views regarding costs, future investment plans and that sort of thing,” Jim Stanford, the CAW’s economist, told Reuters.
Stanford said, however, that Ford has still not addressed the CAW’s main concern: that Ford guarantee a certain amount of its North American manufacturing footprint stay in Canada as General Motors Co and Chrysler did in deals reached with the CAW in the spring, the story said. (Reuters
