Canada tries to end rail shutdown quickly

The Canadian government has acted quickly to end an unprecedented rail shutdown, announcing that it will ask the country’s Industrial Relations Board to issue a reopening order, which should come soon.

The union said the work stoppage at Canadian Pacific Kansas City will continue until it receives an order from the Canadian Industrial Relations Board (CIRB). The union and company representatives were scheduled to meet with the board Friday morning.

Canada’s two leading railways, Canadian National Railway (CN) and Canadian Pacific Kansas City (CPKC), locked out more than 9,000 unionised workers on Thursday, causing a simultaneous rail shutdown that business groups say could cause hundreds of millions of dollars in economic damage.

The Canadian government announced on Thursday that it will ask the country’s Industrial Relations Board to issue a reopening order, which should come soon. The independent CIRB board will consult with companies and unions before issuing the order.

CN said it will end the lockout on Thursday at 6 p.m. CPKC said it was preparing to resume operations in Canada, and more details on timing would be provided once the CIRB order is received. Labour minister, Steven MacKinnon, told reporters:

I assume that the trains will be running within days.

In addition to the reopening order, MacKinnon asked the board to begin the process of binding arbitration between the Teamsters union and the companies, and to extend the current labour agreements until new ones are signed. The parties blamed each other for the work stoppage after multiple rounds of negotiations failed to reach an agreement.

Rail protest affected the economy

Early Friday morning, the Teamsters union released a statement on the X website saying it had taken down picket lines at CN.

CN spokesman Jonathan Abecassis told the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation that it could take a week or more for the company to catch up on supplies. An unprecedented shutdown of rail service could severely damage Canada’s economy and have a significant impact on cross-border trade with the US.

Canada is the second largest country in the world by land area and its economy is heavily dependent on rail transport. A train shutdown would paralyse grain, potash and coal shipments and slow the transport of petroleum products, chemicals and automobiles. Canada’s railways transport about 380 billion Canadian dollars ($277 billion) worth of goods each year.

Rail companies have previously said they were forced into a lockout to avoid strikes as soon as possible. They said they negotiated in good faith and made several offers to improve pay and working conditions.

The shutdown has halted shipments of grain, potash and coal, and slowed the transport of petroleum products, chemicals and cars.

Tens of thousands of people who depend on some commuter rail lines in Toronto, Vancouver and Montreal were also affected by the lockout as train service on those CPKC-owned lines was halted indefinitely.

According to union and company officials, the reason for the shutdown was mainly due to work schedules, labour availability and demands for better work-life balance. Ottawa introduced new duty and rest rules in 2023.

SKANDAL BIVŠEG KOŠARKAŠA ZVEZDE! Devojka šamarala Cirbesa usred restorana, a sve zbog jedne obične starlete! (FOTO)

Proslavljeni košarkaš Maik Cirbes već je neko vreme u vezi sa nemačkom manekenkom Viki Zontag, a da u njihovom odnosu ne postoji poverenje bilo je jasno kada je zbog starlete Kristije Spremo Viki išamarala dečka i izazvala skandal usred restorana, piše Alo.

Par se sa nekolicinom prijatelja pre dva dana našao u jednom restoranu u Beton hali, a prijatnu atmosferu prekinuo je Kristinin dolazak.

Veče je počelo odlično i društvo u kom su se Cirbes i devojka našli vidno je uživalo. U jednom trenutku u baštu susednog restorana ušla je Kristina Spremo i za njom su se svi okrenuli. Ona je sela za sto, međutim, posle nekih pola sata primetio sam da je Cirbesova devojka ustala i počela da se pući i da uvija kukovima. Za nekoliko minuta, shvatio sam da sve vreme imitira Kristinu i ponavlja svaki njen pokret, kako bi je isprovocirala. Kako ju je ova samo pogledala i nasmejala se, situacija se nakratko smirila - priča izvor Alo-a.

Maiku je bilo veoma neprijatno i pokušavao je da iskulira. U nekoliko navrata pogledao je ka Kristini i napravio neku tužnu facu u znak izvinjenja. Kristina mu se osmehnula, a sledeće čega se sećam je devojka koja ustaje i iz ramena mu udara šamar, a zatim drugi, treći. Odjednom je sve stalo - kaže isti izvor, verovatno neko od posetilaca Beton hale.

Kristina Spremo je potvrdila da je došlo do nemilog doga��aja, ali ništa nije želela da komentariše.

semblante se menea en positiva que da razón a propuesta. en realidad, no tiene idea de cómo lucen los narcisos, pero no es nadie para cuestionar dictamen cuando compañía es quién tiene clara especialidad en el tema. ‘ me gustan los girasoles, creo que se verían bonitos. ’ es lo único que agrega. no por desinterés, sino por evidenciar nulo conocimiento de flora. ‘ pasé hace algunas semanas para llevarle flores a mi novia. ’ recuerda, ofreciéndole una sonrisa que aun agradece toda la ayuda brindada. ‘ pero aun no me decido por el regalo de san valentín. ’ va un poco tarde, obviamente. ‘ pero creo que repetiré las flores, parecieron gustarle mucho cuándo se las di. ’

"las rosas son las reinas de la festividad, te lo digo yo, vendí un montón." y sigue vendiendo en los posteriores a la celebración, más que nada por les novies que no sirven para dar lindos detalles y buscan reparar el daño luego de que está hecho. "personalmente, pienso que también son buenos los girasoles y hasta regalan un poquito de originalidad al gesto ¡uh! y los narcisos, llenaría todo este lugar de girasoles y narcisos." mueve las manos en lo que va señalando el espacio, ya imaginándose cómo habría añadido las flores de haber tenido la oportunidad. "¿ya compraste tus flores para la fecha? no recuerdo si pasaste por el local."

Remember the big solar storm in May? Scientists have just discovered that, in addition to creating spellbinding auroras, the storm also made a new temporary ring of charged, high-energy particles encircling Earth.

Earth is typically surrounded two of these giant, donut-shaped rings of particles called the Van Allen Belts. But during especially large solar storms, a temporary third Belt can form sandwiched between the two permanent ones.

The new Belt, which was discovered by NASA’s Colorado Inner Radiation Belt Experiment (CIRBE) CubeSat, could last months to years. Scientists are studying the data to better understand the Belt and how long it might stick around. Stay tuned for their findings!

By September of 2023 initial meetings took place between WestJet and AMFA where the union’s negotiating committee identified major concerns with the workplace and ultimately some of the reasons they decided to unionize. They identified that the company did not respect seniority, the irregularities in pay scale and some work privileges were eliminated without notice or rationale.

Many of the union’s proposals were “boilerplate” and quickly agreed to tentatively, however there were serious concerns and discussions around staffing still being below pre-COVID levels causing “levels of fatigue that are detrimental to aviation safety.” These concerns continued into December, when further charges were filed against WestJet for staffing concerns and significant changes to the positions inspecting the aircraft.

Throughout bargaining WestJet has been in the driver’s seat getting closer and closer to a labour dispute. It was the company that put the parties on course for a lockout or strike by filing for mediation with the CIRB. It was also the company that alluded to outsourcing the jobs during the collective bargaining process. ...

Following multiple negotiation dates, the employer decided to further the adversarial approach and delivered a 72-hour lockout notice to the negotiation committee and would commence if the parties did not reach a deal by May 7th. A tentative deal was in fact reached by May 5, 2024, which avoided any work stoppage at that time. Throughout the month of May employees reviewed and discussed the tentative agreement which resulted in an overwhelming rejection of 97.25% of employees stating no with a 99% participation rate.

The union took this direction from their membership seriously. They began immediately providing a survey to their membership to get clear direction from them on what they would need for a fair collective agreement. A 97.25% rejection sends a clear message to an employer that they have missed the mark, this is also incredibly important when looking at the participation rate. These employees are involved in their union and are affected deeply by the negotiations of their first collective agreement.

“Members were particularly bitter with the bad faith at the negotiating table.  For months at a time, WestJet refused to respond to Union proposals.  Frequently, WestJet rejected our proposals without an explanation or with the disdainful rationale that AMEs were not entitled to the same benefits or work rules as pilots.  The airline violated the status quo mandated by the Canada Labour Code by outsourcing maintenance work and reducing benefits. WestJet’s lack of respect for its AMEs [Aircraft Maintenance Engineers] contributed mightily to the contract rejection.” Bret Oestreich – AMFA National President

The employer’s response? Cancel scheduled bargaining dates and request the Canadian government to impose a collective agreement on the workplace rather than negotiate a deal between the parties. ... The CIRB has ultimately made the right decision to force the employer to continue with collective bargaining as intended.

amanda the adventurer and fairies (if you even care)

imo we're too focused on christian mythos with all the demons and sacrificial lambs, and forgetting the very pointed celtic mythology cues in this narrative and I'm here to be the change I wanna see in the world, so let's go!

game spoilers below, you know the deal uwu

I think the biggest hint that we should not get hung up on Christian mythology, is the fact that in the very introduction with the letter by Aunt Kate, she pointed says "by the gods." Not "by God", gods plurals. We're to take a polytheistic angle with this, but which exactly is nebulous at first.

Behind the Catching Up With Colton news clipping, there's news about a Celtic relic, the crown of the stag, being stolen, and suspicion of a gang called the Demons. This was pointed out as an easter egg from another game, but I feel there's more to it.

For the most obvious lead, there's the Pied Piper theory for Hameln entertainment, which is a fairytale. In the Coffee Break tape, we see how Sam wanted to "show the world is a magical place" which I do believe he meant as just that, being optimistic as he's characterized, but that's also a lot of settings in fairytales. There's the known world and the fantastical, magical world. And to expand on that, the setting of the story being limited to a single city and community instead of being something with a broader reach matches the usual setting of a fairytale being restricted to a single village or town. Not that unlike the Pied Piper story itself, set in the city of Hamelin.

If you really want to squint at it, things such as baking and sending cookies as a form of thanks, while pretty common daily life things are also linked to rituals to pacify the fey and offer thanks to magical beings. Cookies and pies are also incredibly common baked goods in fairytales, and for instance, the tale of Hansel and Gretel has a house of candies that lure them inside, to a witch who would fatten them up and eat them. While sweets are present in the tapes, they are often exchanged for pieces of meat and organs, almost as if they are interchangeable.

Bringing it back to the Celtic Relic clipping, there's a long explanation that the crown was given as a peace promise between the Fey and the human kings. As such, let's take a look at Celtic mythology.

Foxes in myth are messengers between worlds and are often connected to the afterlife. Also, foxes are often portrayed as fey-aligned creatures, due to their mischievous and cunning nature. Also to go broader than that, there are the myths of Reynard the Fox, a trickster spirit in folktales across Europe that often coexists with Isengrim the Wolf. It's also a common trope that foxes can shapeshift.

Picking a fox to die in a hidden bear trap is quite symbolic in itself. The fairytale character who outwits all and escapes the most difficult situations has been bested, not only defeated but killed. "Silly Mr. Fox" can not only be a display that there is no clever way out of this trap, but also that traveling between worlds is impossible or will kill you.

Now to the "Lonely Kitten", she's clearly representative of Rebecca, caught in a trap as well and without help in sight. When you try to help her, you end up as one more hanging piece of meat. Cats however are more deeply connected to fairies than foxes, with myths like the Cat-sìth which steal souls from the deceased and can curse folks who won't pacify them. One is even described as "the king of cats." While these cats are described as big as dogs, and black with a spot of white on their chests, choosing a cat is quite the artistic choice.

As for Wooly, sheep have in christian mythos the symbolism of the sacrificial lamb and so on, but let's take a look at Celtic tradition.

In Irish myth, the goddess Brigid (associated with wisdom, poetry, healing, protection, smithing and domesticated animals) was the owner of Cirb, a castrated ram who was king of all the rams and sheep of Ireland. Brigid was one of the Tuatha Dé Danann, a group of gods that became the Aen Seidhe. The fairies.

Furthermore, Cirb rules even over the seven sheep that belong to Manannán, a warrior god and ruler of the Otherworld, a realm of gods and the dead. He's responsible for keeping it hidden with a veil of invisibility, and it has been pointed out that at least two of the demons Rebecca is made to recite the names of are also granters of invisibility. Not only that, these sheep were fabled to produce enough wool to clothe every man, woman, and child the world over.

In a crossroads of christian and pagan, there's a myth that animals gain the power of speech after the stroke of midnight on Christmas Eve, including sheep. On most stories, it can only happen when they are observed and are unknowingly overheard by humans. There's also the common trope that children can hear the voice of animals while adults cannot, as a show of the magic of innocence.

I can't quite especulate much beyond this, but I think there's something to chew on here.

Port workers in British Columbia have accepted a new tentative deal with their employers, bringing an end to a tumultuous, weeks-long contract dispute that has paralyzed industries and supply chains across Canada.

Late on Friday, the International Longshore and Warehouse Union Canada (ILWU) says the vast majority of its more-than-7,400 members voted to ratify a deal reached with help from the Canada Industrial Relations Board (CIRB).

The two-day vote closed at 6 p.m. PT on Friday.

"The results of the ratification vote for the tentative agreement show 74.66 per cent in favour of accepting the terms of settlement," ILWU president Rob Ashton wrote in a letter posted to the union's Facebook page shortly before 8 p.m. PT on Friday. [...]
