Also in today’s edition: New rules for temporary foreign workers and France’s political stalemate
Good morning. Canada ’s railways and their union are on separate tracks when it comes to safety rules – more on that below, along with new caps on temporary foreign workers and a massive tax on Chinese-made EVs. But first:nearly 10,000 rail workers back on the job, but plenty of damage had already been done.
Workers are required with very short notice to be away from home for many days at a time, and to work long hours with few breaks in between. Often, the railways count a rest period as the amount of time between when ends and when it starts next. But that doesn’t factor in the individual’s travel time to the railway, which can be substantial because these are remote areas. So this can lead to people working shifts of 17 hours or, in some cases, 24 hours at a time.
