MONTREAL — Hours away from an unprecedented potential shutdown at the country's two main railways, a coalition of business groups has amplified their pleas for the federal government to step in and prevent a work stoppage that would upend supply chains — even as the prime minister stressed a deal at the table is the best outcome.
Under the Canada Labour Code, the federal labour minister can refer the dispute to the Canada Industrial Relations Board for binding arbitration and prohibit a strike or lockout in the interim, the business groups said. "Millions of Canadians, workers, of farmers, of businesses right across the country are counting on both sides to do the work to get a resolution."
Canadian Pacific barred virtually all new shipments on Tuesday morning, with CN did the same Wednesday to avoid leaving any goods stranded on the tracks.
