Nutrien has said they expect to lay off hundreds of employees at their Vanscoy and Allan mines as a direct result of railway performance challenges.
The Vanscoy mine employs 700 people. Downey said that as it stands currently, there will be 470 employees affected.
Layoffs won’t take place at the Allan mine until May 6. When that time comes, Downey has estimated 140 employees to be affected.
