The union representing striking ground crew workers at Canada's busiest airport says its members will vote on a new contract offer today.
    
About 700 baggage handlers, cabin cleaners, and other ground crew employed by Swissport at Toronto's Pearson International Airport have been on strike since late July.
    
The strike has not significantly affected passengers, although the airport has warned travellers that the labour disruption could affect some flights.
    
Swissport says it is optimistic that its latest contract offer will be accepted.
