DETROIT—Ford reached a last-minute deal to avoid a walkout at its Canadian operations late on Tuesday, as the United Auto Workers (UAW) union prepared for a potential expansion of its U.S. strikes against the Detroit Three automakers.
Unifor, which represents about 5,600 Canadian auto workers, were threatening to go on strike at all three of Ford’s plants in the country if a deal was not reached by 11:59 p.m. on Tuesday.
