Call for immediate rail inquiry in Saskatchewan farmers say
Roy Atkinson president of the Saskatchewan Farmers Unions urged a general inquiry into the rail situation after Canadian Pacific Railway announced plans to close 84 stations in Saskatchewan. He warned many fair sized communities could not accept such closures and said protests may attend a Regina hearing on April 22. He argued rail line abandonment and elevator closures harm farmers and that the province should resist being told what to do for the next 65 years.
