CP, police association reach tentative 5-year agreement

Higher wages, expanded training part of new deal

Canadian Pacific (CP) and the Canadian Pacific Police Association (CPPA) announced a tentative, forward-looking five-year agreement on Nov. 17.

"CP is proud to announce another long-term agreement with a valued union partner, this time the Canadian Pacific Police Association," said Keith Creel, CP president and CEO.

The CPPA represents about 80 Canadian police officers employed by CP.

Highlights of the five-year deal include a wage increase, added compassionate leave, expanded training opportunities and an enhanced relocation expense allowance, said the company.

The memorandum of settlement has been forwarded for review of the CPPA members and a ratification vote is expected to be conducted in the near future, according to CP.
