☆ Rail freight from Canada to U.S. continues to drop after ports strike
  + stars: | 2023-07-27 | by ( Lori Ann Larocco | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +5 min
Last week, total rail volume from Canada to the U.S. was down 12%, according to The Association of American Railroad's latest rail traffic report for the week ending July 22. This was an improvement given the first full week of the strike saw a 46% decrease in rail trade from Canada, and the second week suffered a 36% decrease. Rail traffic from Canada into the U.S. had a third-straight weekly drop as a result of the on-again, off-again strike at the West Coast Canadian ports. When the first strike ended on its thirteenth day, delays for rail containers were estimated at 39 to 66 days. Adding another day with the on-again, off-again strike last week, brings the congestion removal tally up to 42-70 days.

The fate of operations at West Coast ports in Canada will be decided on Tuesday, July 25, when rank-and-file members of the International Longshoremen and Warehouse Union Canada will vote on a tentative deal with port ownership. The plan to send the deal to a full union vote comes after a week of confusion and turmoil at the ports. For the vote, work will stop from 8 a.m.-4 p.m. Pacific Time on Tuesday across all ports. Weekly rail trade data aggregated by the American Association of Railroads reveals a total decrease of 82.4% in rail trade over the course of the 13-day strike. When the first strike ended on its thirteenth day, delays for rail containers were estimated at 39 to 66 days.

☆ Canadian port workers back on strike after voting down government-brokered deal, returning supply chain to 'turmoil'
  + stars: | 2023-07-19 | by ( Lori Ann Larocco | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +9 min
Photographer: Ben Nelms/Bloomberg via Getty ImagesThe supply chain is in turmoil again with International Longshore & Warehouse Union West Coast Canada members walking off the job after a key union caucus voted down a tentative deal that had temporarily ended the West Coast ports strike last week. Rob Ashton, president of the ILWU Canada, said in a statement that it did not believe the recommendations had the ability to protect union jobs. His group estimated that the first strike would cause an average 6-8 weeks of supply chain disruption before conditions would return to normal. The National Association of Chemical Distributors told CNBC some chemical companies are expected supply chain congestion until October as a result of the strike. Critical chemicals that go into food, cleaning, water purification, and personal care, among many others, flow through the West Coast ports of Canada and down to the United States.

☆ Canadian West Coast ports strike is over, but it will take weeks for supply chain to recover
  + stars: | 2023-07-13 | by ( Lori Ann Larocco | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +7 min
Darryl Dyck | Bloomberg | Getty ImagesThe strike at the Canada's West Coast ports is over, after both the labor union and port ownership accepted a deal presented by federal mediators. ILWU Canada union workers were expected to be back on the job for the 4:30 p.m. Pacific time shift on Thursday, but undoing the damage to the supply chain from close to two weeks of strike will take weeks. While the production ramp down at the ports was seen immediately, the congestion as a result of the 13-day strike will have a lasting effect on ports. The International Longshoremen and Warehouse Union of Canada begin its strike on July 1. The ports strike has already damaged the U.S. supply chain.

☆ Bernie Sanders, White House pressure railroads on paid sick leave for union workers
  + stars: | 2023-02-09 | by ( Lori Ann Larocco | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +4 min
a member of the committee, demanded railroad carriers offer workers at least seven paid sick days. "If they think that those [Senate members] who voted for seven days sick pay that they forgot, they got it wrong. A House amendment that guaranteed comprehensive sick leave passed the House but failed in the Senate. After the vote, Sanders and more than 70 members sent a letter to President Joe Biden urging his administration to take action to guarantee paid sick days for rail workers. The failed vote on paid sick leave led union leaders to remind politicians that votes have election consequences.
