On 2024-11-04 (4 November 2024) the British Columbia Maritime Employers Association locked out more than 700 ship and dock foremen of International Longshore and Warehouse Union Local 514 at terminals across British Columbia, hours after the union began industry wide strike activity at 08:00. The lockout began on the 16:30 shift and did not apply to grain or cruise operations. Container work at Vancouver and Prince Rupert stopped. Talks broke off on 2024-11-09.

This is a measured change in public data during the event window, compared with a baseline before it. It shows timing, not cause. We describe an event as causing a change only when an official source says so.
Timeline
- Local 514 begins industry wide strike activity at about 08:00, and the employers' association locks out foremen and other Local 514 members from the 16:30 shift, excluding grain and cruise work. [s1] [s3]
- Talks break off after the employers' association reports no progress at the bargaining table, leaving terminals shut. [s5]
- The federal labour minister directs the Canada Industrial Relations Board to order that operations at the ports resume and to impose final and binding arbitration, and extends the existing collective agreements. [s5] [s6]
- The labour board orders the employers' association and its members to resume operations on 2024-11-14 and to continue them until it makes a final determination. [s2]
- Operations restart, with dispatching on the day shift and maintenance and terminal operations from the 16:30 shift. The board schedules a hearing for 2024-11-18 on questions raised about the ministerial direction. [s2] [s4]
Cause
The employers' association said it locked out Local 514 members in response to the union's strike notice and strike activity, to allow a safe and orderly wind down of operations after nearly two years of bargaining for a new agreement. The union was pressing its demands on pay and on terminal automation. Attributed by: British Columbia Maritime Employers Association. [s1] [s3]
Resolution
2024-11-14 (14 November 2024): The federal labour minister directed the Canada Industrial Relations Board to end the work stoppage and impose binding arbitration. The board ordered operations to resume, and terminals restarted on 2024-11-14 under extended terms of the previous agreement. [s2] [s4] [s5]
