Abstract

Canadian National Railway Co. is facing a potential strike threat from the Teamsters union, which plans to withdraw the services of its 6,500 members if a new contract agreement is not reached. This comes as thousands of workers at Canadian Pacific Kansas City Ltd. are already on strike, causing disruptions to freight traffic in the country. The Canadian government is attempting to end the work stoppage through arbitration, but the outcome is uncertain. The labor dispute has already started to impact supply chains, with Vancouver's busiest port experiencing congestion and potential delays in cargo offloading. [Extracted from the article]
