Canada extended an order that requires the country's two largest railways to ship a minimum amount of grain each week until March 28. The federal government said the measure is to ensure that the remainder of last year's crop is moved along with this year's and that normal operations of the grain supply chain are maintained, according to a statement. "Our government continues to act to ensure that grain and all commodities get to market in a timely manner," said Transport Minister Lisa Raitt.
