Ontario Northland strike continues

“It appears the Ontario Northland Transit Commission (ONTC) has issued lay-off notices to some unionized and management employees.”

Ontario Northland buses remain stalled as talks between the drivers, represented by the Teamsters Canada Rail Conference, and company representatives broke off over two weeks ago. via Parry Sound North Star

Personally, I'd prefer to take the train! Unfortunately, because I'm in Barrie, I'd have to "bus" elsewhere just to take it, as the train doesn't come through here. Also, to go up north, I couldn't even switch over to the train, because the train was always ahead of the bus.

However, for the most part, my family used the bus service to send parcels, because it was cheaper than going postal. So, now we're hanging onto Christmas gifts, in hopes that we could send them before the holidays.
