Rail is vitally important to the continued success and growth of Alberta's economy. Every day, it transports Alberta products to market and delivers goods to communities across the province. Alberta Municipalities (ABmunis) has spoken with our federal counterparts and the provincial government on the potential rail transportation shutdown and the impact it could have on Alberta's communities and businesses. We are hopeful a shutdown can be avoided through last-minute negotiations between the railways and the union representing 9,000 rail workers. We support our members’ call for the federal government to take immediate action to help keep Canada’s railways running smoothly. #ABmunis
