jEOX FP)1.0 CANADIAN TRANSPORTATION RESEARCH FORUM Lip LE GROUPE DE RECHERCHES SUR LES TRANSPORTS AU CANADA 20th ANNUAL MEETING PROCEEDINGS TORONTO, ONTARIO MAY 1985 379 THE POTENTIAL IMPACT OF CROW RATE RATIONALIZATION FOR DIVERTING CANADIAN GRAIN EXPORTS THROUGH UNITED STATES GULF PORTS JERRY E. FRUIN LONNIE DICKERSON Department of Agricultural & Applied Economics University of Minnesota, St. Paul, Minnesota BACKGROUND As long as rail rates for Canadian export grain move- ments were restrained by law (the "Crow Rates") to a level substantially below variable costs, there was no incentive for Canadian export grain to be moved by low-cost land or water routes through the United States. However, our pre- vious research (1) indicated that as transport costs in- crease as a result of Crow Rate rationalization, the total logistics costs for some of Canada's export grain shipments could be reduced by utilizing barge transportation on the Mississippi River system or unit trains to deep-water ports on the U.S. Gulf. The objectives of this study were to de- termine the quantities of Canadian export grain that would be moved through the U.S. and the resulting, cost savings if such routes were utilized while minimizing the total logis- tics costs of Canadian grain exports. Our analysis included several combinations of possible rail rate levels and Mis- sissippi barge rate levels. The study looked at actual exports in 1981-82 and projected exports for 1990. Fruin & 1 Dickerson 380 THE GENERAL MODELA/ A linear programming cost minimization transshipment model was constructed. The model provided for moving three export grains from 21 supply regions over five possible routes to North American ports, and then by ocean vessel to 34 importing ports serving 32 importing countries.

MANITOUWADGE by Amandine Martel & José-Karl Noiseux ]
Community Labour Market Report MANITOUWADGE By Amandine Martel & José-Karl Noiseux ] The Community Labour Market Report series provides local labour market indicators to assist community leaders and organizations in the decision-making process. The goal of this report is to provide community actors with a better understanding of what is happening in their community. It does not attempt to explain the reasons behind the trends, spikes or troughs in the provided data. This information is intended as a starting point for an evidence-based conversation by the community about why certain changes are occurring. This report is a first step. It is now up to you, the reader, and your fellow community members to explore and address the challenges and opportunities your community is experiencing. This report examines current labour demand and supply data from Manitouwadge, Ontario, and analyzes how each data set aligns with the other. DEMAND 01. Employers Central to local labour market planning is an understanding of the characteristics of area employers, such as their numbers, size, and the industries they represent. Changes in any of these factors over time affect employment levels and opportunities within a local labour market. Manitouwadge’s employers are predominately small businesses. Indeed, 82.4 percent of businesses in the community have fewer than five employees (Table 2). By comparison, 87 percent of Ontario businesses had fewer than five employees in December 2016 (Statistics Canada, 2016). Furthermore, the total number of businesses in Manitouwadge decreased between December 2015 and December 2016 (Table 2). In addition, it is possible that the fluctuation in the size of businesses observed during this time period resulted in part due to some businesses downsizing their activities.

Magnaghi Ph.D. Professor Emeritus, Northern Michigan University The Lake Superior basin to outside folk can be viewed as a relatively isolated part of the Great Lakes system. However, during national Prohibition in the United States (1920-1933) rumrunners traveled Lake Superior carrying their highly demanded but illegal alcoholic beverages to the United States. There are even stories of pilots flying booze into northern Wisconsin from Port Arthur. This is a story that has been by-passed by many historians because of a lack of readily available information. A search of newspapers and a few published sources tell us a different story of what happened on this northern border. The saga of the Canadian tug, Arbutus is the subject of this study, which will shed some light on an aspect of this era.
