Air Canada Agreement

Broadcast News of Canada reported a tentative agreement has been reached in the Air Canada pilots' strike.

It followed a marathon bargaining session in Montreal that continued around the clock for nearly two days.

The 21-hundred pilots will start voting on the agreement by secret ballot Friday morning -- and the process is expected to take three days.

If the pilots ratify the accord, the airline will begin phasing in operations within 24 hours.
