March 14, 2022 – As advised last week, approximately 3,000 Canadian Pacific Railway locomotive engineers and conductors may take labour action as early as this week which would significantly affect all rail services in Canada. Its effect would significantly impact rail services in Canada and there may be suspension of certain rail services prior to an anticipated strike date. Canaan Transport will continue to be in contact with our ocean carrier partners, as they review and announce contingency plans and will also advise our clients of options to divert potentially affected cargo to other modes or carriers. The situation is fluid and with the intervention of federal mediators in contract negotiations, there may be strike date extensions to forestall any labour action while talks proceed. We will continue to monitor and update you as the situation progresses.
