Is my memory failing me or wasn’t it the Forest Council (along with Pat Bell and our own Mayor Colin Kinsley) that supported the sale of BC Rail?
They said private industry works far better than BC Rail could, even though the railway was making good money at the time it was sold.
Wasn’t it the same group that said if CN Rail didn’t live up to those promises, they would (according to the mayor) be their worst nightmare? On March 23rd, Intercon’s work sheet reports, “Warehouse pulp inventory has reached a critical level, no rail cars available for warehouse switch today. Temporary facilities being erected outside for storage of finished pulp inventory.” At Northwood pulp this report; “Rail cars for shipping pulp are becoming a big concern again. The last few weeks have seen a warehouse filling up.”

“There was a complaint filed last November with the fairness advisor,” Bell said of the allegation.
