CBC strike 'called off'

New CBC/CMG collective agreement ratified by 88.4% of voters

Members of the Canadian Media Guild have voted 88.4% in favour of ratification of the new collective agreement with the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC).

A total of 3514 Guild members cast ballots; of those, 3106 voted yes; 394 voted against the deal. 14 other ballots were either spoiled or challenged and not accepted.

The ratification officially puts an end to the lockout which began nearly two months ago. The majority of Guild members will be returning to work as of tomorrow.

It is expected to be several days before CBC programming returns to normal.
