NFU to appeal ruling in $690 million class suit
National Farmers Union President James Mayne announced plans to appeal Federal Court Justice Hugh Gibson’s dismissal of the NEU’s $690 million class action against Canadian Pacific and Canadian National Railway. The judge ruled no jurisdiction, no viable class action, and no reasonable claim linking farmers to railways. Mayne criticized the decision as overly narrow and said an appeal will be filed in Saskatoon.
