Justice M. B. Archibald. Chief Commissioner. Board of Transport Commission- ers, Ottawa, and concurred in by Deputy Chief Commissioner A. Sylvcstre. in connection with the Board's ruling giving effect to the application for a. single rate zone in Prince Edward Island for freight rats purposes: Judgment "By an application dated Janu- ary 15. 1949. the Transportation Commission of the Maritime Board of Trade (now known as the Mari- times Transportation Commission) on behalf of the Prince Edward Island Potato Shippers Advisory Association and interested Boards of Trade on Prince Edward Island. applied for the establishment of one rate zone on Prince Edward Island in respect of: "(at rates on potatoes originat- ing on Prince Edward Island des- tined to points in Canada outside of the Select Territory (as dcliiied in Section R of the Maritime Freight Rates Act) and to the United States. and "(hi all class or commodity rates other than strictly distance rates applicable from. to. or between stations on Prince Edward Island fill the one hand and to. from, or between stations outside the Mari- time Provinces on the other. Supplementary Application "By a supplement dated March I. 1949. to the said application the Same Transportation Commission applied on behalf of Boards of Trade on Prince Edward Island. the Prince Edward Island Potato Shippers Advisory Association. and interested hippers and receivers of freight ocated outside the so- called Inner Zone for the estab- lishment of one rate zone on Prince Edward Island in respect of the rates generally described in the application dated January 15. limit. but more specifically described In, respect. of paragraph (a) above as: rates on potatoes originating onf Prince Edward island and destined; ti. points in Canada outside of the Select Territory tas defined in Section ll of the Maritime Freight Rates Act) and to points in the United States as per tariffs con- tained in statement marked "13" attached to the supplement. and in respect of pai'a';raph (b) above niorespeciiically described as all class or commodity rates other- than rates that. might be described as mileage scale or distance rates (is. rates applicable strictly ac- cording to dlstancesi applicable (1) from Prince Edward Island to stations outside the Maritime Provinces. f2l to stations on Prince Edwardt Island from stations outside the!

Government Support . the Governuieiili tion. l "The applicants asked that a Prince Edward Island in respect of the above mentioned rates and that the level of rates applicable to the single zone be on the pres- ent Inner Zone basis hereinafter referred to. "Prince Edward Island is pres- ently divided in two i-ate zones. an Inner Zone and an Outer zone, insofar as domestic class and com- modity rates from and to Eastern Canada are concerned. The Inner Zone comprises the Respondent's lines of railway from Borden to Charlottetown and Emerald Junc- tion to Summerside. The outer Zone includes all the Respondent's lines west of Summerside and east of Royalty Junction. in other words both ends of the Island. as shown on Exhibits ll. 12 and 32.

Ilatoa History Reviewed "The history of rates from and to Prime Edward Island was dealt with at length by the applicants and respondent at the hearing of the application. and its appears from the evidence that changes were made from time to time in the rats zones and in the level of the rates in the zones in Prince Edward Island. "The first through all-rail rates came into effect when the ear ferry service was inaugurated in I917 between Eorden. Prince Ed- ward Islandand Tormcntine. New Brunswick. At that time class rates between Montreal and Prince Edward Island were on a three sons basis in that Province. con- sisting of in none corresponding to the present Inner Zone. and two Outer Zones. and the rates cor- responder generally to what. is known as the Halifax. Mulgrave and Sydney basis respectively. "This three lone division was not eliminated until April 1024 when the class rates between Montreal and Prince Edward Is- lan were constructed on the same basis as the c'-III rates between Toronto and Prince ldward Island. and zones were restricted to the present Inner zone and Outer zone.

The evi- dence in this connection shows for CI-IARLOTTETOWN Hon. J ustlce Archibald "As regards class rates between Toronto and Prince Edward Island the evidence is that in January. 1918. such rates in respect of the present Inner Zone were on the Mulgrsve basis and in respect of the Outer zone were on or a little higher than the Sydney basis. "On May 29. 1923. the rates from Toronto to the Inner Zone were reduced to the Halifax basis. and the rates to the Outer Zone were reduced to the Mulgrave basis. al- though rates from Montreal to the two outer Zones previously refer- red to still continued nn tho Mul- grnvo and Sydney bases respect- i';el,v. The reduction of the rates from Toronto followed a hearing held by the Board in April. i923. respecting rates in Prince Edward Island. In the course of the hear- ing the question of zones was brought im. a conference was ar- ranged between the complainants am! the railway. and the reduction in the Toronto rates resulted.

Assistant General Railways. testified that the same. basis of mileage progression is employed in the United States por- tion as in Canada and that the United States carriers would not be willing to accept it class rate based on a single or a two-zone system in Prince Edward Island. I am not disposed to request the railways to change the present ward Island to the United States. "Evidence was given as to the course of the changeover from narrow gauge to standard gauge track in Prince Edward island.

"Evidence was also given as to freight traffic to and from the example that potatoes loaded at Prince Edward Island stations amounted to 60.138 tons in 1032. 228.083 tons in 1047. 210.539 tons in um and 203,382 tons in 1950; and that freight. unloaded at Prince Edward Island stations amounted to 202.599 tons in l932. 404.960 tons in I917, 54l.752 inns in I918. 471.456 to in 1949 and 411,722 tons in ill . "Having regard to the Ialanrl position and characteristics of Prince Edward Island. the feet that Prince Edward Island is trest- ed as A single sous insofar as movement of nntaloaa to western Canada is concerned and that the . entire Island is also grouped as a single zone in respect of certain competitive rates on potatoes to United States points. and upon full consideration of all that was submitted. I see little reason why the present two-zone system should not be changed to a one-zone sys- tem. "I do not think that the change would adversely affect the zoning presently in existence throughout the rest of the Msrltimes. I am firmly of the oplnio that a sim- ilar combination of e conditions that justify the establishment of one zone in Prince Edward Island does not exist in any other area of the Maritime Provinces. includ- ing Newfoundland. Previous Board Judgments l'Counsel for the respondent re- ferred to certain j dgment of the Board in respect of the removal of unjust discrimination under which the decision as to whether the lower rate creating the unjust dis- crimination should be increased or the higher rate reduced has been left to the railway concerned. However proper these judgments were on the facts on which they were given I do not think that: they indicate the course that the Board should follow in the present case. "I therefore direct that the Canadian National Railway Com- pany establish not later than Oc- tober l2th. i951, one rate zone comprising: the whole of Prince Edward Island in respect of do- mestic class and commodity rates. other than mileage or distance rates. applicable law eastbound be- tween stations ln Canada outside select territory as defined in Sec- tion 3 of the Maritimcs Freight Rates Act and stations in Prince Edward Island. and lb! westbound hetween stations in Prince Edward Island and stations in Canada outside the said select territory. and make anplic le to the. whole of Prince Edward stand the level of such rates now charged to and from stations in the present lnncr zone of Prince Edward Island." A lengthy minority report. dis- senting from the above judgment. was filed by Cominissioner H. B. Chase. Under the order issued by the Board. the Canadian NationalRail- way Company is required "to file tariff amendments giving effect not later than Oct. 12. 1951. to the cliangcs in rates and establishment of one ratc zone comprising the whole of Prince Edward Island directed by the jud:zment herein of the Chief Commissioner and the Deputy Chief Commissioner dated Sept. l5. 195i." The application for the above ruling was argued before the Board by Messrs. J. O. C. Campbell. KC, and Hand I-I. Matheson. for the applicants. and Messrs. A. K Dysart and A. H. Hart for the Canadian National Railway. PAGE mural Lip-T Eitagt Skin so soft . . . smooth touched with a lingering lovable fragrance; Your complexion clear ...
