On Friday, Canadian Pacific Railway and the Teamsters Canada Rail Conference (TCRC) extended their "no strike/no lockout" agreement to Dec. 8. The parties reached the pact Nov. 18 after union members narrowly rejected a tentative five-year agreement negotiated in September.
CPR and the TCRC — which represents 4,500 locomotive engineers and conductors — plan to continue negotiating a mutually acceptable contract.
Meanwhile, United Steelworkers-Canada last week reached a tentative agreement with Canadian National Railway Co. covering 3,200 track maintenance workers.
Details of the agreement — which addresses wages, meal allowances, pensions, travel and work-life balance issues — weren't disclosed pending ratification by union members.
The union's current contract with CN expires Dec. 31.
