      I heard ads on the radio that CN is holding a kind of job expo....they're looking for train conductors.

      A story in the Western Seducer also states CN is looking at hiring a fairly significant amount of people.....WTF changed? Skeleton workforce not working and needs a little more meat on it's bones?

      Was it a union breaking tactic? Or reducing the cost of the workforce by attrition or buy-outs then hiring cheaper employees? Shareholder dividends?
