Editor’s Note: Since the news of a work stoppage, we have updated the downloadable draft letter and speaking points. Please find that here.
With the Teamsters Union members working for Canadian Pacific Railway (CP Rail) voting 96.7 percent in favour of a strike mandate, ABP is extremely concerned about the potential impacts a strike will have on access to feed grains.

Negotiations continue ahead of potential rail strike
