Union says Potash Corp talks fail, will strike
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Aug 7 (Reuters) - Mediated talks between Potash Corp of Saskatchewan (POT.TO: Quote, Profile, Research, Stock Buzz) and the United Steelworkers union failed on Thursday and the union said it would go on strike immediately.
The talks, which were only in their first day, failed when the company refused to change an offer that had already been rejected by the 500 workers at the three mines in Saskatchewan, the union said in a statement.
