Striking Canadian Rail Workers Ordered to Return to Jobs
An Aug. 24 decision obliging more than 9,000 Canadian rail workers to stay on the job is a win for the railways and could impact bargaining in other federally regulated sectors such as aviation, the head of a Canadian rail workers' union told Reuters.
Paul Boucher, president of the Teamsters Canada Rail Conference, also said the union would work with other labour groups as it mounts a legal challenge to a decision that halted work stoppages at the country's two largest railways and imposed arbitration.
"Any federally regulated company, it's a win for them at this point," Boucher told Reuters in his first interview since the Aug. 22 lockout. "This is disastrous for labour, for workers."
