Canada’s Jobs Minister Patty Hajdu has ordered more than 10,000 Air Canada flight attendants back to work after they began striking shortly after midnight Aug. 16, following a breakdown of talks between the airline and the union to renegotiate a contract that expired in March.
The minister also ordered binding arbitration to resolve the dispute.
