The two sides continue talking but CP Rail service has been shut down, with more than three-thousand engineers, conductors, and others off the job.
The strike began yesterday (Sunday) after the two sides failed to reach an agreement but they’re still meeting with a federal mediator.
Federal Labour Minister Seamus O’Regan stated Canadians expect a quick end to the dispute but he’s resisting calls from business and industrial groups to legislate an end to the walkout.
According to a CP Spokesperson, the rail company does not operate in Northern BC.
