TMG Digital reports that South African fire fighters who embarked on a strike over wages in Canada will return home on Tuesday.
Environmental Affairs Minister Edna Molewa advised in a statement: “Following successful discussions‚ between the fire fighters and the high-level Working on Fire (WoF) team that we had dispatched to Canada‚ they have agreed to their demobilisation and to return back home to South Africa.” Molewa dispatched a mediator from WoF late last week to resolve the dispute.
