Canadian Pacific’s Network

Canadian Pacific (CP) is a privately owned and operated railway transportation company, which is federally regulated in all aspects of railway operations. CP operates over 14,700 miles of track and employs approximately 15,000 people in Canada and the United States.

CP is committed to being among the safest railways in North America. We believe our success depends on more than our ability to understand our business and customers – we must also appreciate the issues that matter to the communities in which we live and do business.

Canadian Transportation act

• Canadian Pacific is governed by rules as set out in the Canadian Transportation Act and administered by its Agency

• Section 113 - 116 of the act focuses on “Levels of Service” that a railway must meet under the act which includes… “a railway company shall, according to its powers, afford to all persons and other companies all adequate and suitable accommodation for receiving, carrying and delivering traffic on and from its railway, for the transfer of traffic between its railway and other railways.”

If a complaint is made to the Agency about the railway’s refusal to provide adequate service (one example might be refusal to move a certain commodity), the Agency can order the Railway to comply.

Tank Cars

- Railroads in general do not own rail tank cars; the vast majority of tank cars are owned by leasing companies or rail customers to ship products.

- The U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT), Transport Canada (TC) and the Association of American Railroads (AAR)-North American Tank Car Committee issue tank car regulations and standards. DOT and TC issue federal regulations, while the AAR-North American Tank Car Committee sets industry standards.

The AAR-North American Tank Car Committee is comprised of the AAR, rail car owners and manufacturers as well as shippers of dangerous goods, rail customers, DOT, TC and the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB). The committee works together to develop technical standards for how rail cars, including tank cars used to move dangerous goods, are designed and constructed.

CP works pro-actively with Emergency Responders and communities to prevent, prepare for, respond and recover from incidents:

- In partnership with the Canadian Transport Emergency Centre (CANUTEC), the chemical industry and our shippers

- Through safety initiatives like Transportation Community Awareness and Emergency Response (TRANSCAER)

In the unlikely event of an incident, CP has:

- Emergency Response Plans based on CSA Z731-03 “Emergency Preparedness and Response” standards

- Established a 24/7 network of resources, equipment and experts to reduce response time; limit impacts; and remediate impacted sites

Investigation – Post Incident

With any mode of transportation, accidents do happen

CP has a comprehensive train accident cause-finding program

- All front line managers are trained in this program to ensure ALL relevant evidence is gathered and analyzed to identify root causes

- CP also provides this training to Transport Canada, Transportation Safety Board and Provincial regulators

The results of every investigation, along with identified corrective actions are logged into a database to identify trends or systemic issues and to track corrective actions

Corrective action plans are implemented to prevent recurrence
