Ben Line Canada – Industry Update: Navigating the Aftermath of the CN/CPKC Rail Strike

In response to the recent labour disputes that culminated in a CN/CPKC rail strike and lockout, the Canadian government has stepped in to impose binding arbitration. On August 22, the Minister of Labour directed the Canada Industrial Relations Board (CIRB) to assist in settling the disputes, ensuring that rail services across the country could resume.

As rail lines works on lifting the lockout and initiating recovery plans, we at Ben Line Agencies are closely monitoring the situation. The rail strike had a significant impact on the Port of Vancouver, where two-thirds of cargo relies on rail transport. With operations beginning to resume, we’re committed to keeping our clients informed and ensuring a smooth transition back to full service.

Our team is ready to assist with any adjustments required during this recovery phase. Please contact our team at canada.ops@benline.com
