Ag Industry Coalition Submitting Recommendations To CTA Review Panel

A coalition of Canadian agricultural groups has banded together to submit recommendations to the Canada Transportation Act (CTA) review.
 
This group, which represents the vast majority of shippers of bulk and processed grains and a broad cross-section of grower funded organizations, believes that the current rail system is not meeting the needs of producers and exporters.
 
One of the coalition's recommendations is to improve transparency with regards to the capacity and operation of the rail freight system by improving the CTA's access to information.
 
The coalition is also asking that a permanent advisory board composed of stakeholders representing all primary rail user groups assist in the establishment of the new monitor's operating terms of reference and to guide its activities on an on-going basis.
