Mr. Speaker, an independent study released by the Agricultural Producers Association of Saskatchewan, the Canadian Federation of Agriculture, the Canadian Wheat Board, Keystone Agricultural Producers, the National Farmers Union and Wild Rose Agricultural Producers shows that farmers are being gouged for rail service to the tune of $200 million a year. Calls for a railway costing review have gone unanswered for years and the Conservatives continue to do nothing.
When will the minister put a stop to this robbery by the railways? The money that hard-working farmers have already overpaid needs to be returned.
Will the minister finally do his job and commit to a full costing review of railway charges?
