A strike at a mine in Nunavik, Quebec has entered its fifth day after the union decided to exercise its strike mandate late Friday night. United Steelworkers, the union representing the 630 striking workers at Raglan Mine, said it had no updates on Wednesday. “The employer systematically quibbles over the living and working conditions of employees who are away their families for long periods of time. The union had voted on strike action the previous week with 97.5 per cent of their members voting in favour, the union said. Striking employees have left the mine and returned to their hometowns.
