10-Sep-07. Casino workers picket while gamblers gamble. Edmonton Journal, A11.

About 25 strikers were stationed at the entrances to the Palace Casino and the West Edmonton Mall on the first day of a strike by casino workers. All of the casino slots and electronic games were still operating, and a limited number of gaming tables and the poker room were being run by management. Alberta Federation of Labour president Gil McGowan, who visited the picket line, said the entire labour movement is closely following the strike.
