Report by Local 598 President, Mike Solski, on: 26 Nov. meeting with Ontario Labour Minister Daley; justification of union's wage demands; Inco's cutting of the work week to 32 hours prior to strike; and wage increases paid by other base metal companies. Solski asks where the competition is that Inco is so concerned about and debunks notion that Falconbridge or Cuban sources are a threat to Inco's monopoly. He also comments on Inco being forced to drop its claims of an inflated average wage figure and speculates thta Inco wants a strike to reduce its stockpiles and increase the selling price of nickel.Subjects:COLLECTIVE BARGAINING~MINERS~ONTARIO~TRADE UNIONS~INTERNATIONAL NICKEL COMPANY OF CANADA~SOLSKI, MIKELanguage:EnglishDetailed holdings information: -
