i hope there will be another general cn strike soon those bastereds only understand picket lines , canadian companies have no respect to their employees
Well it's almost been a year and the shit is all still happening. Remember to remind your Members of Parliament next time they are seeking your vote that they sent you back to work. Good job Jasper, you were an inspiration to the rest of the country!
Keep it up brothers and sisters! How is it that these so called managers are quailified to take over as conductors with very little training? How about it Transport Canada, you going to let them run their trains like that? Watching closely from CP Rail ;)
OK Canada.This is HISTORY in the making. You will find treachery and deceit all agianst "US" the Canadian work force. The rail industry with governments help has changed our Canadian way of life. All employees of this industry "MUST" unite under one banner.The only way to fight corperate America is head on.WE MUST become one. 6 or 7 different unions with contracts ending at different times and years.SCABS doing OUR jobs,legislation telling my co workers to cross the picket lines.
Divided we fall;UNITED we stand.We MUST unite under ONE banner. ALL employees in the industry belong to the same team. One employeer;One banner for ALL employees. .How effective is your union?? When by law I have to cross your lines. and SCABS do your job!
THINK.Big bussiness are Governments,Unions and Rail industry. "US" the workers MUST initiate a change. Status quo does not work. Let,s change HISTORY. Take back our UNITED POWER.That is the only way to beat Corperate America in CANADA..
Now men (and women) of CN. We must unite against the Workers' Compensation Board in Winnipeg. For too long these parasites have been feeding off of the backs of working men (and women) in CN. Legitimate claims are neglected to save money. Look hard at the brother in Winnipeg who was arrested. Let us support him now!
We're proud of you brothers!! in the u s we carmen voted no but were not able to do what you have. Fighting the company, government and treachery of the"officials".you have changed history!
Thanks for making a stand for what is right. I wish we had the balls to do it in the USA. We are treated like crap on the CN in the U.S. and nobady will stand up like you guys are doing. I hope your effeorts pay off for all of us. God Bless and keep you and your families safe. Thanks CN employee USA
As a former train movement clerk for CN Rail (93-94), I support the strike. I dated a conductor in Jasper, Alberta for three years and I was alone a lot. He was away a lot. And we didn't have children together. Families suffer. Give them what they need. Bargain in good faith! Conductors are pivotal in the safe movement of trains across this country. We need to think about that. Good luck, guys and I miss all of you.
Please! See this until the bitter end. You have this company by the short hairs and giving the rest of us hope. This monster needs to be brought down, NOW! You people are doing a great job hurting him. Hurting his millions. This RTC salutes you!
Give 'em hell men. We may only be train buffs, but every one of us railfans around the CN North America system support you guys 100%. Soon enough they'll realize management can't run trains forever, and they'll have to listen. Keep up the good fight.
Way to go guys! Wish our union leaders had your guts. We've been without a contract for 2 years. They want concessions while profiting billions. CN won't bargain, it's their way or the highway. We should be striking with you. Michigan Track Dept.
I support you guys! Fight it out, don't settle for anything less than what you guys deserve. I'm a conductor with CP in Calgary, TCRC Division 355. The CN Three Hills Sub passes right by my place, and the trains seem to be not there. EHH is living in a fanatsy land of his empire still running smoothly.
stand united and strong! win the fight against this corporate waste of life! i proudly support the canadian utu's LEGAL strike action! my father is walking the line for his local 1874 winnipeg, and i wish i was there to stand beside him. instead i show my public support for his brothers and sisters in vancouver.
Great video I love how the famlies came out. I would love to see this on the TV that is if the Media hasn't been bought out.
It is about quality of life. I would not want to work the hours CN Rail's CEO is trying to force on the workforce. CN's mangment from the USA is trying to make Canadian workers slaves from what I have read. Great Video it is very encouraging to see you all stand up.
Being home for reasonable breaks between work is what I call Quality of life.
Good job! I give you my solidarity. I am a unionized truck driver (teamsters 230) in Toronto. Hope we can learn a thing or two from you when our contract comes up! Working people across the country and around the world are watching you.
It's about time we brought some awareness to what's really going on with CN,for the sake and safety of our brothers and sisters,our families and our town.
Man I love living in the "Thin Air" capital of the Rockies.
Sorry Shawn. I retired from CN years ago now. Frankly I'm surprised this video still exists...
