Reading time: min

WALLACEBURG, Ont. - A tentative deal has been reached to end a labour dispute at a <link _top>castings plant in Wallaceburg, Ont., north of Chatham.

Work at Accurcast ground to a halt on 16. October when members of the Canadian Auto Workers union held a protest over a contract dispute. The employees claimed they were then locked out, however company officials denied that.

The union has presented the new contract to its members at a ratification meeting.

Contract talks had been stalled for more than a year at Accurcast, which supplies engine parts to the Big Three automakers.
