CP rail strike or lockout

Maybe Trudeau can take a moment to halt his Ukraine fake virtue signaling tour and evoke the EMA again and freeze the teamsters back accounts.

Bets he lets this fester for a month.

Potash has doubled in price and now it sits on the sidings. Canada is such a fcking joke. Biggest supercycle in our history and we are going to watch it go by.

The farmers will be blamed for this as usual, we get blamed for everything. Too hot, too cold, too many avalanches, etc we get the shaft at the end. We are the only industry in the world where we take what we are dished. These guys should be forced back to work.

Ex hired man in oil crash ,laid off tried the rail road ,90,000$ a year . He went back to oil , a year ago, more money liked the Job better. Then moved up
Again. Week in week out northern Alberta . Must be really depressing driveing a train at 25 mph from north battleford to llyod.

Some people think it’s really depressing driving around and around and around in fields at 2-3 mph…

Different strokes for different folks.

My experiences with rail employees have put it near the bottom of my alternate career choices. But someone has to do it.

Or back and forth with no hands. I remember a farmer saying a ferry operator crossing a river and back all day would be boring. At least you could visit or wave to someone different every trip. LOL

Not sure where you guys farm, but my neighbors seed and harvest at 6mph, spray at 30mph.

Yeah we had crops like that also last year... 5-6mph was not out of the ordinary....

You must have some real speed freaks that farm around you, not sure that my sprayer would even go that fast, maybe on the road going down hill.

[Blaithin]

Oh 6mph? That makes it way more interesting…. You can be back to seeing the same view in half the time!

Nobody sees anything they are busy texting the fert company looking for the nurse truck GPS does the looking now Oh wait I see the truck he's a mile over and lost!!!

I just hope those brave workers aren't forced back to work against their will by an evil and tyrannical government with a hidden globalist agenda to control people.

If it takes 6 months of trains being shut down to get what they require, then they need to do that. They are fighting for freedom. CN workers should join in a show of solidarity. No rail traffic for 6 months. Make Canadian Rail Great Again.

Locomotive Engineers 143,000 per yr, 77,000 per yr after retirement funded by 1 for 1 contrubitioins , Sure must be tough.
