Winter weather created hazardous driving conditions on Highway 401 overnight, leading to multiple accidents and several road closures between Belleville and Cornwall in eastern Ontario. Traffic flow between Ontario and Quebec was significantly affected and delivery delays are expected

Environment Canada has issued a snowfall warning for Metro Vancouver due to convective snow bands, bringing highly localized snowfall. These conditions are causing delays across the city, impacting local deliveries.

We would like to inform you of an extreme weather warning affecting parts of the Maritimes, the Prairies, Northern Ontario and the Midwest towards Chicago.

Over the next several days these regions are expected to experience severe cold and/or heavy snowfall.

These challenging conditions will impact road travel and necessitate enhanced rail safety measures such as reduced train lengths, to ensure safe and efficient movement of your goods.

We remain dedicated to minimizing disruptions during this period.

If you have any questions or require additional support, please do not hesitate to contact your account representative.

Please be advised that we are experiencing delivery delays today due to adverse weather conditions.
