E-petition
Initiated by Patricia Kandiurin from Churchill, Manitoba
Original language of petition: English
Petition to the House of Commons in Parliament assembled
Whereas:
- The Port of Churchill and the rail line to Churchill have been shut down by Omnitrax;
- Freight is no longer arriving into the community by rail and food prices have increased;
- Local businesses and the local and regional economy have been impacted significantly; and
- Omnitrax refuses to fix the rail line.
We, the undersigned, residents of Canada, call upon the Government of Canada to support the proposal to repair the train tracks, re-nationalize the Port and rail line, and work with Churchill and northern First Nations to take it forward.
