Canada's largest union, the Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE), is slamming the federal government's forced arbitration order against rail workers represented by Teamsters Canada who were set to engage in a lawful strike. Labour Minister Steven MacKinnon directed the Canada Industrial Relations Board (CIRB) to order an end to any labour stoppage and imposed binding arbitration.
I get that you’re trying to say that the NDP was able to do something, but there’s no evidence they were consulted on it. Given that it lasted less than a day before the strike was stopped, it was probably something the government didn’t discuss long.
Makes sense, thanks for the explanation.
