Agriculture Roundup for Tuesday, November 29

CN Rail announced a donation of $100,000 to Shock Trauma Air Rescue Service during Canadian Western Agribition (CWA).

CN’s donation will be used for the operational needs in Saskatchewan. This will provide direct support to communities and stakeholders along CN’s network in Saskatchewan, where many CN employees live and work.
