    Interim Order from LRB posted at BCFMWU Home Page
    THE BC FERRY AND MARINE WORKERS UNION ARE INFORMING THEIR MEMBERS AND THE PUBLIC THAT THEY HAVE RETURNED TO THE BARGAINING TABLE THIS MORNING WITH BC FERRIES AND MEDIATOR VINCE READY. BARGAINING IS CONTINUING THIS HOUR.

    Ferry union offers to resume service CBC News
    VICTORIA - The president of the B.C. Ferry and Marine Workers Union says ferry service could resume Thursday if the government rescinded its cooling-off period, and agreed to the essential service levels set by the Labour Relations Board.

    Jackie Miller also says the union has contacted mediator Vince Ready and told him that the union is ready to resume negotiations – without any pre-conditions.

    Miller said the union shut down all ferry service because the government acted too quickly in imposing a cooling-off period.
