Canadian National Railway (CNR-T) Union members went on strike Tuesday, threatening a crucial artery for exports of oil, grain, chemicals and minerals and leaving some vulnerable Prairie regions potentially without any mode of commercial transportation. The strike at Canada's largest railway comes despite a push for a deal by Labour Minister Patty Hajdu and Transport Minister Marc Garneau, who met with union and CN representatives Monday. Union concerns include fatigue, safety and ensuring workers' breaks are not reduced. Andrew Scheer, leader of the Conservatives, and Alberta Energy Minister Sonya Savage each separately urged Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Twitter to immediately recall Parliament. Mr. Trudeau has said he is not reconvening Parliament until Dec. 5 and the government cannot start the process to force workers back on the job until then. Neither Via Rail nor commuter trains in Vancouver, Montreal and Toronto -- which run on CN tracks -- are affected. CN and the union have been unable to bridge an impasse on items ranging from pharmaceutical benefits to time-off provisions.
