Two union locals voted in favour of AbitibiBowater's agreement in Thunder Bay

CEP Locals 257 and 39 voted in favour of AbitibiBowater's new proposed agreement on Saturday. The agreement outlined provisions, including recall, should the No.5 paper machine restart in Thunder Bay.

"If the number-five paper machine was to restart up, what we’ve negotiated with them is the provisions on how it would start up," said CEP vice-president Kim Ginter.

While he admitted no monetary concessions were made, Ginter said he did not want to get into specifics of the document unless the machine does go back online.

Specifics of the vote results will not be made public.
