Delegates attending the CAW convention in Toronto could vote today on a plan to merge the union with the Communication, Energy and Paperworkers union.

CAW President Ken Lewenza says the timing of the vote will depend on how long delegates debate the plan today.

Lewenza is confident delegates will say yes to the merger which would create the largest, private sector union in Canada.

CEP members will vote on the proposal at their convention in October.
