Some dock workers and employers in Canada's Pacific Port have reached a tentative agreement, a local unit of the workers' union said late on Thursday.

"As of Wednesday, July 19, 2023, your bargaining committee has reached a tentative agreement with BCMEA", the International Longshore and Warehouse Union (ILWU) Local 502 told its members in a statement.

The local unit represents 3,000 of the 7,500 dock workers who went on strike earlier this month.
