Has Unifor set target dates for completing negotiations?
Yes. The target deadline to reach a contract settlement with Ford Motor Company was July 10, 2026, which was achieved. The target deadline to reach a settlement with GM Canada is August 21, 2026.
In any set of negotiations, it is critical to establish a target deadline to complete the process and reach a tentative agreement. Without it, there is little motivation for the either of the parties to work towards the mutual objective of reaching an agreement.
