General Motors Co. reached a contract with its Canadian union, ending a strike that began about 13 hours earlier at three plants in Ontario.

The three-year agreement will increase base hourly wages by almost 20% for production workers and 25% for skilled trades, the union said in a statement. The deal also increases starting pay for temporary part-time workers and boosts pensions.
