OTTAWA — Negotiations aiming at renewing collective agreements for CN
locomotive engineers and rail traffic controllers are to start within
the next few weeks. In addition, CP rail traffic controllers will also
be negotiating at the same time.
"Workers at CN and CP have made it possible for these companies to haul
in record profits over the past few years thanks to their efficiency and
professionalism," explained Dan Shewchuk, President of the Teamsters
Canada Rail Conference. "Companies must recognize this and compensate
them for their good work."
The contracts will end on the coming 31st of December. Negotiations will
affect more than 2500 employees of Canadian National and Canadian
Pacific. The Teamsters Union represents more than 15 000 workers in the
railroad industry.
