WestJet mechanics issue strike notice again: could walk off the job Friday

WestJet says it faces a possible strike by its mechanics.

The Calgary-based airline says the Aircraft Mechanics Fraternal Association has issued a strike notice that could mean a work stoppage as early as 5:30pm Friday.

The notice comes after the union called off its strike plans last week and returned to the negotiating table.
