CN Railway workers approve contract that ended crippling November strike -union

Canadian National Railway Co workers have approved a new three-year-contract, cementing a deal that was struck in November to end the country's largest rail strike in a decade, their union said on Friday.

Teamsters Canada said in a statement the contract was approved by 91.3% of its estimated 3,200 rail conductors, yard workers and trains personnel.

The new contract "focuses primarily on safety, specifically with regards to crew fatigue and hours of work," the union said.
