The union that represents workers at both of Canada 's largest freight railroads has filed the lawsuits it promised challengingThe lawsuits were filed Thursday afternoon, the Teamsters Canada Rail Conference said. But they won’t stop the trains because the government had ordered the union to stay on the job while the arbitration process plays out.
The union challenged the labour minister's order that sent the dispute into arbitration and the Canada Industrial Relations Board decision Saturday that forced them back to work. The labour minister didn’t immediately respond to questions about the lawsuits. The U.S. and Mexican operations of Canadian National and CPKC continued operating, but the stoppage was still a major disruption on both sides of the border.
