Loss from a strike (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

toll

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'loss' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'a strike' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

'from' is the link.

(Other definitions for toll that I've seen before include "Price exacted" , "Charge to use, eg, bridge" , "Be inclined" , "Ring - fee" , "Tax paid for use of some roads" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
