Business groups call on federal government to prevent rail work stoppage

OTTAWA — A coalition of business groups is calling on the federal government to prevent a work stoppage at Canada's two biggest railways.

In a joint statement Wednesday, the Canadian Chamber of Commerce, Business Council of Canada, Canadian Federation of Independent Business and Canadian Manufacturers and Exporters say Ottawa needs to take action to ensure the continuation of rail services. Their trains haul a combined $1 billion worth of goods per day, from canola to consumer electronics, according to the Railway Association of Canada.
