Loss of Crow rate fuels Reform critique in mailed letter
Wayne Mathison from Hamiota criticizes Liberal NAFTA and GATT handling and recalls the Crow Rate of 1887.

He cites historical subsidies and rail agreements to illustrate ongoing policy pressures and promises vigilance. He stresses the need to honor past agreements and regrets decades of perceived poor governance.
