    CAW picks up 4,600 new members in merger with union in Quebec Canadian Press
    The Canadian Auto Workers have gained more than 4,600 new members after those employees agreed to leave an aluminum-workers union in Quebec to join the country's largest private-sector union.

    The CAW said Thursday that it will gain 28 new bargaining units representing 4,646 members of the Federation des syndicats du secteur aluminium (FSSA) agreed to merge with the CAW, known in Quebec as TCA. Most of the workers are from units of aluminum giant Alcan Inc., while others are from Quebec's Norsk Hydro.
