The Carpenters District Council of Ontario has announced it has reached a tentative agreement for carpenters in the industrial, commercial and institutional (ICI) sector.

The union has been on strike since May 9 after union members voted down a prior tentative agreement. Since then, some 15,000 carpenters have been on picket lines across the province.

According to a news release issued Wednesday, ratification votes for the agreement will happen across Ontario on Friday May 27, with a final tally in the afternoon.
