Air Canada has canceled approximately 240 flights scheduled to operate starting that afternoon due to a union defying a federal back-to-work order.

Teamsters General President Sean O'Brien announced that union members plan to flood the streets and shut down garbage collection across multiple states due to demands for better wages and benefits.

The work stoppage entered its second week with no end in sight, but a marathon bargaining session resulted in a 4 a.m. tentative agreement between the union's leaders and the city on Wednesday, July 9.

The appellate court's denial of the writ petition allows VTA to continue to serve our customers. We are hopeful that ATU will return to bargaining.
