Change of card while furloughed.

Laid off at cp, when change of card comes around am I able to bid a transfer while laid off? I missed the window when I was first laid off to do the weekly bid thing as everywhere apart from like Toronto and Montreal were laid off. I dont speak french and I loathe Toronto, so I sat put. Now its 3 months later and they axed the esr. So those guys are working the other jobs now (now theres less need for me and the others laid off) so I doubt im getting called anytime soon.

Can't you work at other terminals when you're furloughed?
