Grieving families outraged as Canada's biggest cemetery remains closed for 5 months

Bereaved families are calling on Quebec Premier François Legault this week to get involved in a labour dispute that has seen Canada's biggest cemetery — Montreal's Notre-Dames-des-Neiges Cemetery — remain closed for five months.

The wrought-iron gates of Montreal’s Notre-Dames-des-Neiges Cemetery have been shut to the public since mid-January due to a strike by operations and maintenance workers, with the exception of a few days in late March and early April.

As Phil Carpenter explains, the plea to the premier comes as nearly 300 bodies remain unburied and while families were able to visit for Mother's Day on Sunday, families say a resolution is needed.
