According to "The Diesel Shop" yes they do!

 

 

The only SW1500's they have were aquired through the purchase of the Wisconsin Central. CN never bought any from GM/EMD.

   The CN Lines web site has a pretty good roster of active and retired diesels.  I see no SW7 or SW1500 locomotives on the rosters.  Here is the web link:
