CANADA: The International Longshore and Warehouse Union Canada rescinded the strike notice that it issued on Wednesday.

In a brief note to its locals in British Columbia that evening, the union said the strike set for July 22 at 9am “has now been removed.”

With the 72-hour notice lifted, the union can’t resume strike action unless it files another notice, according to the Canada Industrial Relations Board decision issued against the union on Wednesday.
