Dreyfus wins vs. CN Rail

The Federal Court of Appeal has upheld a ruling that found Canadian National Railway breached its level of service obligations to Louis Dreyfus Commodities Canada Ltd. two years ago.

The case focused on a complaint filed by the Calgary-based company with the Canadian Transportation Agency.

There were so many complaints about poor service that the Conservative government and former agriculture minister Gerry Ritz intervened to order the railways to move more grain to export terminals.
