Federal Government's Mandatory Grain Shipment Rules Not Extended
2015-04-08 04:56:13| Railroads - Topix.net
The grain shipment rules enacted by the Canadian government - the most recent iteration of which expired on March 28, 2015 - have not been renewed. Thus, for the first time since March 7, 2014, the Canadian National Railway Company and the Canadian Pacific Railway Company are not subject to special shipment requirements designed to ensure the elimination of backlogs of grain resulting from a bumper Western Canada 2013 crop and the adverse impact on normal railway operations resulting from cold temperatures during the winter of 2013-14.
