<p>(Reuters) &#8211; Auto workers at Ford Motor (NYSE:)&#8217;s Canadian facilities will start voting on a tentative three-year deal on Saturday, a spokesperson for the Unifor union said on Wednesday.</p>
<p>Ford reached a last-minute deal to avoid a walkout at its Canadian operations late on Tuesday, as the United Auto Workers union prepared for a potential expansion of its U.S. strikes against the Detroit Three automakers.</p>
<p>Unifor, which represents about 5,700 Ford employees in Canada, had sought improved wages and pensions, as well as support in the transition to electric vehicles and additional investment commitments by Ford.</p>
<p>Unifor&#8217;s talks with the Detroit Three automakers in Canada are separate from the UAW&#8217;s coordinated U.S. action that led to about 12,700 workers going on strike last week against one assembly plant at each of the Detroit Three automakers. </p>
