Canada: CPKC and CN Railway Employees Back to Work Following Government Intervention
Union workers at Canadian National (CN) Railway and Canadian Pacific Kansas City (CPKC) returned to work August 23 and August 26, respectively, ending Canada's first ever strike involving both major rail lines, which began on August 22. As detailed in this report the actual strike days were not the only significant disruptions that the rail lines faced in July and August. The union has filed four separate appeals with the Federal Court of Appeal.
