CBC faces strike after 87% vote in favour  < 5:11:33 PM>.
The CBC's largest union has voted overwhelmingly in favour of a strike if its negotiators can't get a deal with the corporation.
The Canadian Media Guild (CMG) announced Tuesday afternoon that its members had voted 87.3 per cent to support taking strike action, if necessary.
The union said 67 per cent of employees turned out to vote.
The CMG represents about 5,500 technicians, journalists and administrative staff in most parts of Canada, except the province of Quebec and the city of Moncton, N.B.
