Blockades may close 'significant' parts of rail network

BY , Feb 11, 2020 11:42 PM - REPORT AN ERROR

Canadian National Railway Co. says it will be forced to close ``significant'' parts of its Canadian network unless blockades impeding its rail lines are removed.

CN has halted more than 150 freight trains since Thursday evening, when demonstrators set up blockades in British Columbia and Ontario in solidarity with opponents of the Coastal GasLink pipeline project that crosses the traditional territory of the Wet'suwet'en First Nation in northwestern British Columbia.
