Breaking News: Canadian Rail Lockout

The Canadian rail industry is currently grappling with a historic work stoppage as both Canadian National Railway (CN) and Canadian Pacific Kansas City (CPKC) have initiated lockouts due to unresolved labor disputes with the Teamsters Canada Rail Conference (TCRC). This unprecedented dual shutdown of the nation’s two major railroads is a significant event that has already begun to disrupt key supply chains across North America.

We're committed to supporting our members and the industry during this critical time.
