Mechanics and clerks at Canadian National Railway Co. have voted overwhelmingly in favour of a strike mandate that could see workers walk off the job as early as New Year’s Day.

Unifor says 97 percent and 96 percent of the two groups, respectively, cast their ballots in favour, paving the way for potential job action on Jan. 1.
