A nine-day strike in June led to widespread commuter headaches as service was limited or stopped outside peak hours and late at night on some days.

While this second strike is expected be less disruptive to the public, union president Bruno Jeannotte says commuters can still expect service to slow or stop at times.

Both sides say they want to avoid a strike and resolve the impasse, which centres around wages and the use of subcontractors.
