FCC increases Crow sharing to continuing lessees
Farm Credit Corporation will pay continuing lessees 12.5 percent of the WGTA payment for 1995 and another 12.5 percent for 1996, totaling 25 percent. The direct pass-through aims to reflect market values as Crow benefits shift and will not affect land purchasers who receive 100 percent WGTA payouts.

Wake up call on grain rail lines in prairie Canada
The piece quotes Transport Minister Doug Young and Agriculture Minister Ralph Goodale saying most grain dependent branch lines would be kept by CN or CP or moved to short lines. It questions the assurances, argues “most” is unclear, warns of mass branch line closures as grain elevators consolidate, and urges ministers to face reality.
