G3 Terminal wins CP's "2022 Elevator of the Year" award

The G3 facility at Carmangay (Alberta) received the honor for inbound grain for 2021- 2022.

Last year when animal feed supplies were an issue in Western Canada due to the drought G3 Carmangay stepped up to help.

The site which normally receives grain by truck and loads it onto trains, did the reverse to fill this critical need.

G3 CEO Don Chapman says livestock producers counted on us to supply animal feed during a difficult year, and we delivered.

Joan Hardy, CP Vice President Sales and Marketing Grain and Fertilizers says they helped to find innovative solutions when the Western Canadian grain crop was the smallest in over a decade due to severe drought throughout the Prairies.

CP presents the award annually to grain elevators that achieve high volumes from a single loading point while consistently demonstrating efficient railcar loading and a strong commitment to safety.

MPs question why core, decades-old scientific infrastructure is being deemed 'not core' while other, controversial programs were funded. The Deputy Minister is repeatedly pressed for the actual net savings of the decision versus the expense of relocating research programs.
