The union representing Montreal dockworkers has ended a three-day strike at two terminals as scheduled, but there's potential for more job action in the coming weeks.

A three-day strike by unionized Montreal port workers that shut down two container traffic terminals ended early on Thursday as scheduled, the port authority said in a statement.

The three-day partial strike by dockworkers at the Port of Montreal is already having repercussions. The Montreal Port Authority “has noticed an accumulation of containers on the ground, including temperature-controlled containers of food, pharmaceutical and medical products,” it said Tuesday after one strike day.
