Transit talks continue today, mediator Vince Ready brought in

Talks between the transit union and the City of Saskatoon are set to resume this morning, but this time a prominent mediator will join the discussions.

Labour lawyer and mediator Vince Ready is being brought in to try and get a resolution in Saskatoon's transit dispute.

Ready was pivotal in bringing an end to the teachers' strike in B.C.

Saskatoon's transit lockout is almost three weeks old. Ready will try and help the two sides find more common ground.

in 2007, Ready mediated talks between the Saskatchewan government and SGEU.
