Original Toronto Star caption: Cars delayed: Traffic at the main gate at the de Havilland plant backs up as striking workers parade across the entrance. Talks between the company and its 2;700 workers broke down yesterday after the crown corporation rejected union demands for a 3 percent wage increase in each year of a proposed three-year contract. Unionized workers have been off the job since last Friday.
