U.S. West Coast port workers’ unions say they won’t work containerships originally bound for the Port of Vancouver that changed course and were diverted to the Port of Seattle. The disruption comes as labor strikes at West Coast ports in Canada stretch into a seventh day.
The International Longshore and Warehouse Union U.S. West Coast chapter said Friday its members would not work any of the diverted vessels.
