Mr. Musser's comment made me chuckle this morning. Foreign roads owning track in the United States and vice versa has been a thing since the Grand Trunk Railway of Canada pushed its rails to Portland, Maine in 1853. The "undermining American independence." line was used a lot by the C&NW against the SOO and GTW during the "great battle for the Milwaukee Road" in the 1980s. It didn't work.
Even though I disagree with his opinion, I do applaud Mr. Musser for taking the time out of his day to make his voice heard. Even though I have been looking at STBs filings for several years, it never occurred to me that I could send in my own!
Anyways, 99.6% of KCS shareholders voted in favor of the merger today.

From Trains Magazine:
KANSAS CITY, Mo. – Kansas City Southern shareholders today overwhelmingly approved the railway’s proposed merger with Canadian Pacific.The voting trust will take effect on December 14th. KCS shareholders will be getting a fat paycheck that day. Wish I bought some stock when I could!
