Canadian Pacific acquitted of contempt in long work hours case; Teamsters union disappointed.
Judge Donald Rennie acquitted Canadian Pacific Kansas City Ltd. of contempt of court in a case related to long work hours for employees, overturning a lower court's decision that found the company non-compliant in 22 instances between 2018 and 2019. The orders primarily limited shifts to 10 or 12 hours. The Teamsters union, representing thousands of CP workers, expressed disappointment in the decision, claiming the company routinely violates collective agreements.
