DETROIT (Reuters) - The Canadian Auto Workers union plans
to continue talks overnight with General Motors Corp
The CAW had set an initial deadline of Wednesday evening to
reach contracts with the two Detroit-based automakers that
would follow the pattern it established in a now-ratified
3-year contract with Ford Motor Co
Hargrove, speaking to reporters on a conference call, said a "handful" of contract issues still divided the Canadian union and Chrysler and GM, but he repeated that the CAW would not accept a two-tier wage system for workers at either company.
"We've moved the envelope pretty well at both tables," Hargrove said, adding "We're very proud of the fact that we're close with GM and Chrysler."
