A nationwide rail labour dispute looms on the horizon, potentially starting as early as Thursday, and it has already captured the attention of American media.
The dispute threatens to disrupt a rail network that stretches across the continent—from the Atlantic to the Pacific, from the Arctic to the Gulf of Mexico. This network is critical to Canada’s agri-food economy, and a disruption involving over 9,300 engineers, conductors, and yard workers could have severe consequences for the entire food supply chain.
