Description	Ontario municipalities including Plympton-Wyoming, Warwick, and others are involved in a dispute with Canadian Pacific and Canadian National Railways over payment for drainage improvements near rail right-of-ways. The rail companies have refused to pay for these improvements, citing federal regulation, but a referee confirmed that the Ontario Drainage Act applies to them and they are required to pay drainage assessments. Municipalities are owed significant amounts, and some projects are delayed due to non-payment.
