The latest talks to create a new collective agreement between Western Forest Products (WFP) and United Steelworkers (USW) 1-1937 have stalled, according to a WFP press release on Tuesday.

“After resuming discussions with the United Steelworkers Local 1-1937 on a new collective agreement, negotiations have reached an impasse and no future mediation dates have been scheduled at this time,” the release said.

Workers have been on strike since July 1.
