MONTREAL — Hours away from an unprecedented potential shutdown at the country's two main railways, business groups ratcheted up 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."

"There's not a whole bunch of trucks around that are available to move the volume that we require," said Ken Shields, the company's chairman and CEO, in a phone interview. Ports fear containers will pile up on the docks as cargo goes unmoved, causing congestion down the line and prompting some carriers to reroute to U.S. terminals.
