Amalgamated Transit Union Local 616 says it plans to file unfair labour practice charges against the city.

Union alleges killing the Windsor-Detroit tunnel bus flouts a collective agreement signed a year ago .

Mayor Drew Dilkens vetoed a council decision to save the money-losing tunnel bus.

The city has said the 10 extra sick days means the tunnel bus now costs about $1.4 million a year.
