Talks between the Canadian Media Guild and CBC management went on until midnight Thursday on the two main issues in the lockout: employment status and workforce adjustment (layoff/recall). The two sides are resuming discussions this morning and indications are that talks will continue into the weekend.

A 48-hour “cone of silence” went into effect at 6pm last night, barring communication from either side with the media. However, the union has the right to communicate about the status of the talks with our members.
