Pensions Up for Discussion

AbitibiBowater workers and former employees in the Fort Frances area will get an update today (Tuesday) on what's being done to protect their pensions.

Two sessions are part of a series of meetings hosted by the Communication, Energy and Paperworkers Union across eastern Canada.

Pensioners are to receive an update on what the company and union have proposed to maintain their benefits while the company restructures.

Contract talks were recently suspended until the two sides would talk with governments over the pension issue.
