Are Canada's nickel miners still on strike

Can any of our Canadians comrades tell me if Vale nickle miners still on strike,I was watching "The Real News" video that was very enlightening.   Being a former UAW union man,I'm very interested in any strike for a fair wage.

Hey Ken, let me tell

Hey Ken, let me tell you about this wonderful thing that I found. It is called google and it can find all types on information but you have to actually go there and try to get it for yourself.

 

Anyway, I did that and it seems that the miners who are on strike were already out of work anyway and the mine in shut down for at least the next couple of weeks due to low market prices for the stuff. So it doesn't really matter if they are picketing a mine that they would have been locked out of anyway.

Nickel miners were on

Nickel miners were on strike? I know there's a few garbage strikes going on. And boy are they going nowhere.

Of course they're on strike.  They work for nickels a day.
