Episode Details

Montreal’s blue-collar workers are poised for a high-stakes seven-day strike starting September 22, coinciding with the Road World Championships — and the city promises essential services won’t shut down. The dispute centers on pay, with union leaders arguing inflation has outpaced wage offers, while Mayor Soraya Martinez Ferrada cites budget limits.

As talks drag on, both sides brace for a clash that could disrupt major events and daily life.
