Ottawa should be ready to step in to prevent Air Canada strike: Chambers of commerce

Two Maritime chambers of commerce are expressing concern over a potential Air Canada strike. The union representing around 10,000 Air Canada flight attendants could signal its intent to strike if a deal isn't reached by the end of Tuesday. The earliest flight attendants could potentially walk off the job is Saturday at 12:01 a.m. ET. Since the union must provide 72-hours notice if it plans to strike, that means it could declare its plans for a work stoppage by Wednesday at 12:01 a.m. ET. The Saint John Region Chamber of Commerce and the Fredericton Chamber of Commerce have written letters urging those involved in the labour dispute to come to an agreement and calling on the federal government to intervene if needed. 'A possible strike threatens to undermine critical national infrastructure at a pivotal moment for the Canadian economy. While respectful of the rights of workers to pursue fair compensation and working conditions, the chamber urges all parties to move urgently toward an equitable resolution that avoids disruption,' reads the letters. The chambers highlight the serious implications of a service suspension and say the federal government should be ready to step in to prevent disruptions if an agreement is not negotiated. 'Canada today faces rising global trade pressures, shifting supply chain dynamics, and an urgent need for internal harmonization,' reads the letters. 'Our interprovincial connections and infrastructure have never been more critical to supporting shared prosperity and economic security.' Air Canada said Monday it 'remains at the bargaining table and is focused on achieving a negotiated settlement' without any disruption to travel. Flights are continuing to operate as scheduled, but the airline says it will notify customers via email and text message in advance of their travel if there are disruptions. For passengers whose itineraries change mid-journey, Air Canada says it will explore all options to keep them travelling, including rebooking with other airlines. With files from The Canadian Press.
