You are just scaring me now chuckchuck!

Been thinking this for a while now. Well put.

Bang on Chuck, well summarized." there is no competitive alternative to the railways", says it all. Transportation is lifeblood of this far flung country. It is obvious to farmers at this time. There simply is no export ag without guarantees set in STONE.
Slapshot, if farmers were refusing to produce enough to feed Canada we would deserve to be forced or removed.

The rail beds should be owned and
operated by the Federal Government.
Just like the Trans Canada Highway. And
like the Trans Canada Highway, it should
be twinned. Thus is a matter of
national interest and should not be left
to the likes of Hunter Harrison.

The railroads can continue to own and
operate their rolling stock in
competition with anyone else that wants
to provide transportation services. In
other words, joint running rights.

The federal government has the power, just not
using it.
