The federal government ruled on Thursday that Canadian National Railway Co. earned too much money from hauling grain in the 2008-09 crop year and ordered it to pay pack more than $700,000. CN's grain revenue of $479,788,412 was $683,269, or 0.1 per cent, above its revenue cap, according to the agency. CN now has 30 days to pay the amount of excess revenue, plus a five per cent penalty, the agency said.So we're making half a billion dollars in revenue on GRAIN alone... Yet we can't afford to buy some floor soap to clean up our diesel shop.. gotta love this place.
