February 17, 2023 — CN has been in ongoing negotiations with Unifor since October 2022. The union represents approximately 3,000 employees working in various departments such as Mechanical, Intermodal, and Facility Management, and in clerical positions in Canada. On December 16, 2022, Unifor filed for conciliation. CN remains committed to achieving a negotiated settlement and avoiding labour action. As part of that effort, CN tabled a comprehensive offer with the Union on February 14, 2023. The offer includes increases in net pay and benefits. It also resolves outstanding issues between the parties and provides improved working conditions for all represented employees.

We do not expect any labour action to impact our operations and we will continue to update this page throughout the process.
