        It doesn't even turn when they are there.....seen any progress on the Indian pulse duty?


        Railways haven't hit good numbers for months.....everyone is asleep....20 questions per day about the finance minister .....one question a month about agriculture. ...

        See the problem?


        Macauley has only stood twice to answer about ag....in a month and a half.....

        53 billion in exports and that's the respect we get in Parliament. ...

          good thing peas are worth nothing.
          not many to ship.

          maybe it would be ok if trump cancelled NAFTA.
          then we could nationalize them, or at least the rail beds.

          might be affordable then , not having to pay for the lost potential profits.
          but only a fair value on the rail beds.

          i do not see any other solution, as long as NAFTA is on the books ,
          the railways are more powerful than Govt.s

          old Mulroney, with NAFTA , saved his votes in Quebec, by protecting dairy.
          at the same time , selling us into slavery with the railroads.
          and the liberals selling CN . all stupid.

          such good planning , by liberal and conservatives and the wheat growers asc.

          i wonder what lame ass solution, they will come up with this time.
          for the tenth time.

          what , more uncollected fines
          scary

          fuller rates than they already have,
          that worked so well before.

          only problem , with a monopoly, they do not care. there is no incentive ,
          they are gonna get the business anyway.

          higher rates just means more dividends, or pick up another rail line in the states, they still will not have to spend a nickle
          getting the grain to the coast

              I have realized I am stupid. Why worry....railways are on a purposeful exercise to get their way on that transportation bill...

              And they will with performance like this. If they do 10 percent better of doing nothing ...the minister will say he accomplished something....10 percent of nothing is still nothing.

                  Is our Ag Minister in India raising he’ll regarding the tariffs or did he not get in on the extended family vacation?

                    I had an unusual conversation with a GrainCo Rep yesterday that was hard to wrap my head around. Cars spotted at the end of last year, loaded in Jan and weren't taken away as of yesterday.....is this a GrainCo choice or a rail service issue? CN low volume line. This is a decent sized Co and spot....not some 8-10 cars from a small processor. More questions than answers......

                      Did JT take the Ag Minister to India? Guess we don't need to declare Ag Income since it doesn't matter to this country? Hope JT's minions are reading these posts.
