WINDSOR, Ont. – A tentative contract agreement has been reached aimed at ending an almost six-week strike at the Caesars Windsor casino.
Unifor Local 444 announced the agreement on Twitter early Thursday, but did not reveal any details.
About 2,300 workers walked off the job April 6 after rejecting an earlier tentative agreement.
The striking workers include dealers, cooks, housekeepers and janitors.

The casino says it will remain closed until then.
