Let us be clear, Mr. Speaker. The Minister of Agriculture specifically said fines of “$100,000 per day”. Then he went all across the country talking tough. Now, when it comes to actually getting tough with the rail companies, the minister has failed.
Grain producers deserve a government that will stand up for them and demand rail companies treat them fairly.
Why did the minister break his word and back down? Why is he not standing up for western Canadian producers?
