CN Signal On strike

I always thought when one railroad union went on strike we all did?? So much for solidarity I guess. Guess our unions will sit back and watch them.

Well, you thought wrong. Where do you get your info? All Union railway labor in the U.S. are governed by the Railway Labor Act. Federal law. If another Union on property goes on strike then the rest of the unions will honor and not cross picket lines. You can’t go on strike because your feelings are hurt or your company is a horrible place to work.

I only get my news from StraightUp Truth articles. There is no 30 day cooling off period happening.

And some folks said a strike would never happen. OK it happened in Canada, but it still happened to a class 1. I wonder how their stock is holding out?

So it being in Canada doesn't have anything to do with the IBEW folks here in the US?? And yes signal here is BRS in US.

Their union is IBEW. Both signal and communications departments on strike in Canada.
