Workers at Montreal’s Queen Elizabeth hotel protested for a third straight day on Saturday in the middle of the busy summer tourist season, and they were joined by picketers from two other city hotels to speak out against an impasse in their contract talks.
The confederation of unions that represents the workers and is known as CSN says 1,000 members were on the picket line on Saturday, with 600 from the Queen Elizabeth Hotel, 350 from Marriott Château Champlain and roughly 100 from the Hyatt Place Montreal.
