RE:RE:Yesterdays gain is todays loss!! Members of the Canadian Auto Workers (C.A.W.) Local 3018 have voted 99 per cent in favour of striking at Taseko’s Gibraltar Mine near Williams Lake.
Voting took place by union members on Nov. 21 and 22.
“We’re hoping that it will get some momentum in terms of bargaining,” C.A.W. national representative Pete Smith said Friday, Nov. 23. “We’re meeting again with the employer on Dec. 3 and 4.”

EStreet wrote: Still waiting for a few planets to line up here,,. Several factors on their own or in combination will add to the recent up trend,,.
1) Need to get the contract out of the way, Strike votes are just a step in the process to settlement in the B.C. labour environment,,.
2) Should be added focus on the EA as the Infrastructure Bill reflects on future demand,,,. Get on with it allready, the only American/Green copper project that's in the pipe..!!
3) China’s copper imports in October rose for a second month, customs data showed on Sunday, as traders took advantage of a short period of favourable pricing to bring in bonded inventories of the metal,,,.
Economists and financial experts have been excited by the news, projecting a stellar end to the year.
“The economy is certainly picking up some momentum,” JPMorgan’s David Lebovitz said on Friday on CNBC’s “Squawk on the Street.” “We are expecting economic growth to accelerate here into the end of 2021 and the beginning of 2022.”
