    Railways are mostly to blame for the increased road maintenance costs on this country.....

    Their complete lack of vision has created a trucking industry that they now use as a benchmark for their freight rates.....

    The solution is to build another railway or start rebuilding branch lines that should have never been torn out....

    OR just start trucking to Vancouver. ...and say **** the railways completely and give them a sunset clause.....

    But Buffet and Gates wouldn't allow it.....

      Govt gave half the farmland to CP to build a rail line. Govt fed omnitrax on the Churchill line. Gave them the rail line for free. Rail far more efficient and environmentally friendly than b trains, and patching roads. This might be fuzzy logic but govt would’ve been better to spend 4.5 billion on another rail line through the mountains. Pipelines move fluids. Rail moves everything. What benefits everyone the most.

        They could of spent $4.5 billion to twin a railway to Vancouver possibly.

        They could of spent $0 and sat back and watched Kinder Morgan build the Trans Mountain pipeline.....but they had other ideas.

          Don’t think there was any ideas. More like an “oh shit!” Scramble.

            4.5 billion to purchase a pipeline that was recently appraised at 500 million. Where is the logic. Sounds suspiciously like the GTH land purchase. The sea of stupid continues to deepen
