Unifor Local 444 says members in all three bargaining units have ratified the deal

Unionized Pelee Island Ferry operators have a new collective agreement.

Workers were set to walk out May 20 but the union put strike action on hold as the two sides worked toward a tentative agreement.

Unifor represents 65 employees of Owen Sound Transportation.
