Derrick Hynes, president and CEO of FETCO, which represents federally regulated employers in sectors including rail, ports, airlines, and telecommunications, argues that Canada needs a new way to prevent labour disputes from shutting down critical supply chains. He makes the case for earlier intervention—including special mediators with enhanced powers—before work stoppages bring key infrastructure to a halt.
