Some casino employees in Quebec will be holding another one-day strike on Thursday. The strike mainly involves casino support staff. Dealers are not on strike.

The one-day walkout will affect catering, security and maintenance services, for example, except at Mont-Tremblant, where croupiers will be affected.

Loto-Québec reports that four sites and online games will be affected “in a limited way” as managers also provide services. As a result, the Montreal, Charlevoix and Mont-Tremblant casinos will be open Thursday from 2 p.m. to midnight. At the Casino du Lac-Leamy in Gatineau, regular business hours will apply.

The 1,700 workers are members of the CSN-affiliated Fédération des employés des services publics.
