The Turgeon commission on that occasion granted Appeal in part no rate to an intermediate Point should be More than one third higher than a transcontinental rate to the coast. Parliament so enacted in 1951 and there were for a time substantial reductions in rates to Alberta. The railways began losing so much Money that they abolished most of these transcontinental rates in 1952-54. Then water Competition began to re assert itself.
