I guess it was in 1996 that the Railway Act was repealed and replaced by provisions split into both the Canada Transportation Act and the Railway Safety Act.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8710840\" data-originallang=\"en\">Is it your understanding that the government of the time intended to change the policy around drainage and the opportunity for railways? I find it a bit odd that it was changed back in the late nineties, and then all of a sudden, about five years later, both of our national railways appeared to challenge it. Comment on that, please.</p>",
