54% approval is tragic

This is the best summary I could come up with:

"The ballots have been counted and you have ratified a 3-year agreement that will see tremendous gains for autoworkers," wrote Lana Panye, Unifor's national president, in a statement published to the union's website Sunday.

Unifor also said that Ford reconfirmed its commitments to transform its Oakville operation to an electric vehicle assembly plant expected to start production in 2025.

The contract was reached on Tuesday night after Unifor's bargaining committee extended the negotiations by 24 hours when Ford sent what union leadership called a "substantive offer."

The UAW is targeting Chrysler's parent company Stellantis, Ford and General Motors in their picket action.

Unifor uses a pattern bargaining format in Canada that sees the union negotiate a deal with one automaker to set the standard for the other two.

UAW president Shawn Fain has previously called on the Detroit Three to boost wages by 36 per cent over the life of a four-year deal, a four-day work week, and to end tiered wages inside plants that allows automakers to hire new employees at $15 an hour, well below what more tenured employees make.
