Freight train services across Canada came to grinding halt Thursday morning as thousands of workers at the country’s two main railway companies have been locked out – despite efforts from the federal government to urge a deal to end their labour dispute.

Canadian National Railway (CN) and Canadian Pacific Kansas City (CPKC) confirmed they moved forward with their lockout notices and shut down services after negotiations with the Teamsters Canada Railway Conference (TCRC) union failed to reach an agreement.

Additionally, some commuter traffic has also been suspended, meaning the lock out might prove to be more impactful than some Canadians might think. Mackenzie Gray has the latest.
