Forward-looking information typically contains statements with words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “expect,” “plan” or similar words suggesting future outcomes. Readers are cautioned to not place undue reliance on forward-looking information because it is possible that we will not achieve predictions, forecasts, projections and other forms of forward-looking information. In addition, except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update publicly or otherwise revise any forward-looking information, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. By its nature, our forward-looking information involves numerous assumptions, inherent risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to the following factors: changes in business strategies; general global economic credit and business conditions; risks in agricultural production such as weather conditions and insect populations; the availability and price of energy com- modities; the effects of competition and pricing pressures; industry capacity; shifts in market demands; changes in laws and regulations, including regulation of rates; changes in taxes and tax rates; potential increases in maintenance and operating costs; uncertainties of litigation; labour disputes; risks and liabilities arising from derailments, transportation of dangerous goods, timing of completion of capital and maintenance projects, currency and interest rate fluctuations, effects of changes in market conditions and discount rates on the financial position of pension plans and liquidity of investments; and various events that could disrupt operations, including severe weather conditions, security threats and governmental response to them; and technological changes. Other factors relevant to forward-looking statements are contained in CP’s annual and interim Management’s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) and other documents and press releases filed with or provided by CP to securities regulatory authorities in Canada and the U.S. from time to time. 4 FinanCial HIGHLIGHTS – tHree-year sUmmary Free cash (3) ($ millions) u.S.

  • Transcontinental Railways and Canadian Nationalism Introduction Historiography
    ©2001 Chinook Multimedia Inc. Page 1 of 22 Transcontinental Railways and Canadian Nationalism A.A. den Otter ©2001 Chinook Multimedia Inc. All rights reserved. Unauthorized duplication or distribution is strictly prohibited. Introduction The Canadian Pacific Railway (CPR) has always been a symbol of Canada's nation-building experience. Poets, musicians, politicians, historians, and writers have lauded the railway as one of the country's greatest achievements. Indeed, the transcontinental railway was a remarkable accomplishment: its managers, engineers, and workers overcame incredible obstacles to throw the iron track across seemingly impenetrable bogs and forests, expansive prairies, and nearly impassable mountains. The cost in money, human energy, and lives was enormous. Completed in 1885, the CPR was one of the most important instruments by which fledgling Canada realized a vision implicit in the Confederation agreement of 1867-the building of a nation from sea to sea. In the fulfilment of this dream, the CPR, and subsequently the Canadian Northern and Grand Trunk systems, allowed the easy interchange of people, ideas, and goods across a vast continent; they permitted the settlement of the Western interior and the Pacific coast; and they facilitated the integration of Atlantic Canada with the nation's heartland. In sum, by expediting commercial, political, and cultural intercourse among Canada's diverse regions, the transcontinentals in general, and the CPR in particular, strengthened the nation. Historiography The first scholarly historical analysis of the Canadian Pacific Railway was Harold Innis's A History of the Canadian Pacific Railway. In his daunting account of contracts, passenger traffic, freight rates, and profits, he drew some sweeping conclusions.

  • Canadian Pacific Railway Investigation of Safety-Related Occurrences Protocol Considered Helpful by Both Labor and Management
    U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Railroad Administration RR 06-13 September 2006 Canadian Pacific Railway Investigation of Safety-Related Occurrences Protocol Considered Helpful by both Labor and Management SUMMARY The Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) Human Factors Research and Development (R&D) Program sponsored an Alternative Safety Measures Program designed to explore alternative methods for evaluating whether safety programs improve safety outcomes and the underlying safety culture, and to conduct implementation and impact evaluations of promising safety programs in the railroad industry. The Canadian Auto Workers Union (CAW) and Canadian Pacific Railway (CPR) are interested in learning more about the effectiveness of their safety programs and have provided data for this evaluation. An initial review of surveys, interviews, and focus groups conducted with CPR management and labor employees suggests that the Investigation of Safety-Related Occurrences Protocol (ISROP) program, a standardized process developed by CPR for conducting thorough and systematic incident investigations, is considered more helpful than previous investigation approaches, particularly in identifying contributing factors and corrective actions. On a survey distributed to three CPR Mechanical Services sites where ISROP has been used, respondents indicated that investigations are better “Today” than “Before ISROP” (Figure 1).1 Additional information about ISROP was obtained through interviews, focus groups, and reports generated during ISROP investigations. Although positive comments about ISROP were provided at each site, some people suggested that it is too time- consuming for less serious injuries and can be confusing for investigators who do not use it often. More detailed analyses will be conducted to learn more about the impact of ISROP.

  • Canadian Pacific NOV 18 2015 NS PR.Pdf
    CP discloses full details of offer letter to Norfolk Southern CALGARY, Nov. 18, 2015 /PRNewswire/ - Canadian Pacific (TSX:CP) (NYSE: CP) today disclosed the contents of the offer letter it sent to Norfolk Southern Corp. (NS) on November 17, 2015 to clarify the details of a proposal that would result in the creation of a pro- competitive, pro-customer, coast-to-coast transportation solution. CP also wishes to correct any misconceptions about the sizable premium offered to NS shareholders. The verbatim text of the letter addressed to NS CEO James Squires is dated November 9, 2015 and since that time, there has been considerable appreciation to the NS stock price due to market speculation regarding a potential combination with CP. Mr. Squires asked CP CEO Hunter Harrison to hold off on sending this letter until such time as the two CEO's could meet face to face, which occurred last Friday November 13, 2015. Dear Jim, We believe that combining our two great organizations will allow us to form an integrated transcontinental railroad with the scale and reach to deliver unsurpassed levels of safety and service to our customers and communities while also increasing competition and creating significant shareholder value. We propose a 50% cash 50% stock transaction based on Friday's closing stock price for both CP and NSC in which NSC shareholders would receive $46.72 in cash and 0.348 shares of stock in a new company which would own CP and NSC. The new company would be listed on both the New York and Toronto Stock Exchanges, and maintain a strong investment grade credit rating.

  • Canadian Pacific at the Glenbow: a Hundred Years of the CPR in Western Canada
    Canadian Pacific at the Glenbow: A Hundred Years of the CPR in Western Canada by GLENN T. WRIGHT All aboard! Two hundred and fifty historians, archivists, curators, and rail fans heard the traditional call of the railway porter and gathered at the Glenbow Museum last September to commemorate one hundred years of the Canadian Pacific Railway in Western Canada. Sponsored by the Glenbow-Alberta Institute with assistance from the National Museums Corporation and Canadian Pacific Limited. the festivities consisted of three major elements. In August the celebration began with the opening of the "Great CPR Exposition," a large exhibition that takes a comprehensive look at the construction, arrival and impact of the CPR on the Canadian West. During the month of September, the CPR West Conference attracted a good number of professionals and non-professionals and demonstrated that research on various aspects of CPR history is alive and well. To complement both the exhibition and the conference, Glenbow also sponsored the publication of a souvenir book, Trailoflron: The CPR andthe Birth qfthr West by William McKee and Georgeen Klassen. The centrepiece of Glenbow's tribute to the CPR is the6'Great CPR Exposition," the largest and most ambitious exhibition ever mounted by the Museum. Glenbow staff spent over two years collecting materials and conducting original research, and the result is impressive. The exhibition is an attempt to portray the history of the Canadian Pacific Railway and its impact on the social and economic development of Western Canada from the time of its inception and construction to the 1930s. Historical records have been drawn from virtually every media that one would find in an archives or museum.
