Commission’s Work Shows Broad Canadian Regulatory Reach
The railway commission of Canada reports 6125 applications for the year ending March 31, with 694 complaints and 3310 orders issued. Most cases are transportation related, while traffic disputes cover freight and passenger services. Western division talk is unlikely, Ottawa remains headquarters, and an international tribunal may handle through traffic.
