The York University Faculty Association says it has reached a tentative deal with the university.
The association says the deal to extend the collective agreement until April 2027 was brokered just before midnight Monday.
If ratified, the deal would avert a strike or a walkout at the large Toronto-based university, where fall classes are scheduled to start in two weeks.

The union says an online ratification vote will open Thursday after a membership meeting to discuss the deal.
