Deny Increases On West Grain Tariff
The boards of transport commissioners partially grant a general 30 percent rate hike on coal and coke shipments while denying western grain tariff increases. Grain movements east of the head of the lakes see no rise, and exemptions apply for grain destined to domestic use in western Canada. The decision aims to equalize western and eastern rate levels and preserve protections for Canadian ports with export shipments.
