“I would like to congratulate this union’s leadership for their work and professionalism at the bargaining table,” said Canadian Pacific President and CEO E. Hunter Harrison.

Bill Brehl, president of Teamsters Canada Rail Conference, Maintenance of Way Employees Division said, “The Teamsters’ bargaining committee unanimously endorses this tentative agreement and is recommending the membership ratify it.”
