Original Toronto Star caption: Emergency clean-up: York borough workers have their hands full this week cleaning up the mountains of garbage that piled up during a three-week strike. The members of Local 10 of the Canadian Union of Public Employees voted last week to return to work when the borough offered them a one-year contract that included their controversial sick leave accumulation plan.
