CP Rail shutdown begins across the country as labour talks continue — via financialpost CPRail Canada
The latest development since negotiations began in September has ended in finger pointing, with both sides claiming that the other initiated the work stoppage.
“We are very disappointed with this turn of events,” said Dave Fulton, Teamsters spokesperson at the bargaining table. “They set the deadline for a lockout to happen tonight, when we were willing to pursue negotiations. Even more so, they then moved the goalpost when it came time to discuss the terms of final and binding arbitration.”
At 2:20 a.m. on Sunday, CP released a statement saying that prior to the midnight deadline, Teamsters issued a news release that “completely misrepresented the truth.”
