Best Western Windsor workers to vote on ‘final offer'
Workers strike in front of Windsor's Best Western Plus hotel on Riverside Drive West in Windsor, Ont. on June 3, 2025. (Michelle Maluske/CTV News Windsor) Striking workers at the Best Western Plus in downtown Windsor will vote Monday on the company's 'final offer.' The Ontario Labour Relations Board will conduct the vote for 37 full and part-time workers, members of Unifor Local 195. They have been on the picketline for 15 days, backing demands in a new contract. Ironwood Management Corporation requested the vote, saying the offer would provide employees the best overall compensation of any private-sector hotel in the region. According to Union President Emile Nabbout, the union does not believe the final offer is satisfactory and he doesn't believe his members will support the company. The vote will be held electronically and there's no word on when the results will be known. — Paul McDonald/AM800 News
