CN Receives Arbitration Decision

Binding decision outlines new three-year collective agreement with TCRC

MONTREAL, April 07, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CN (TSX: CNR) (NYSE: CNI) announced today that it has received the arbitrator’s decision regarding the terms of its new collective agreement with the Teamsters Canada Rail Conference (TCRC). After six days of mediation and a comprehensive arbitration process, arbitrator William Kaplan delivered his ruling, establishing the terms of a new collective agreement between CN and the TCRC. The TCRC represents approximately 6,000 of our conductors, conductor trainees, yard coordinators and locomotive engineers across CN’s network in Canada.

The new three-year agreement, effective from January 1, 2024, through December 31, 2026, includes an annual wage increase of 3%. This agreement replaces the previous one and does not require ratification.

Although CN remains disappointed that a negotiated agreement was not reached at the bargaining table, the Company is pleased to be moving forward. CN also remains committed to modernizing the collective agreement for the benefit of employees, customers, and the North American economy.
