Canada’s Rail Deficit Echoes Against Government Ownership
Advocates for government ownership of American railroads are urged to study Canada’s experience. The president of the Canadian Pacific Railway cites a December 31 1933 debt of 2 895 799 134 and notes a nine year shortfall of 456 063 195 to cover interest on securities. He contrasts this with privately owned railroads earning over 400 million in interest and dividends, funded by user charges. The piece argues public ownership would burden citizens and fail to improve service.
