Mr. Forrest Hume at the Transport, Infrastructure and Communities Committee

I don't think congestion is the concern of the railways; I think reduced revenues is the concern of the railways. U.S. railways making incursions into Canada constitute competition from the shippers' perspective. The Canadian railways can retain the traffic: all they have to do is sharpen their pens and provide competitive service. Competition is what the remedy is about, and competition is what will prevail for Canadian railways, if in fact they choose to compete once the LHI remedy is injected into the negotiations.
