MP Wayne Stetski speaks in support of a bill that could help give rafting companies access to the Kicking Horse River Lower Canyon. CP Rail cut tour companies off from accessing the Lower Canyon last year, citing safety concerns.
The Kicking Horse River Lower Canyon access deal looks like it's collapsed after CP Rail installed a locked gate, and announced that talks to finalize the deal hit an impasse on Friday, the day before the official kickoff to the rafting season.
Stakeholders emerging from a meeting with CP Rail on Friday say rafting in the Lower Canyon will go on uninterrupted this season, and that they are working with CP Rail on a long-term solution.
Businesses, politicians and industry groups are rallying to get CP Rail back to the table to find a solution to the ongoing Kicking Horse River access controversy.
