Summary in English
Under the Western Grain Transportation Act (WGTA), the government commitment to assist in the transportation of grain from the prairies to terminal ports is delivered as a payment to the railways to offset part of the freight rates on grain. On June 4, 1993, the Producer Payment Panel was established to develop options for delivering this benefit directly to producers.
