The Star today also mentioned that production was shut down at Labatt brewery,
Kellogg's cereal plant, the McCormick cookie factory, the Accuride auto parts
plant and the Canada post sorting plant. Federal government offices were also
paralyzed.

The Toronto Star's coverage is the best on the strike and seems to capture the
mood of the labour movement and the population at large much better than the
TV news and the Globe.

Cheers, Sean Purdy
