CN Rail has filed a lawsuit against protesters who allegedly blocked dozens of its trains in northern B.C. in February in support of the Wet'suwet'en First Nation.
In a claim filed in B.C. Supreme Court this week, the railway said a two-day protest action in New Hazelton affected nearly 5,000 freight cars, stranding the Port of Prince Rupert and backing up rail traffic as far east as Winnipeg.

Probably won't go anywhere, but the RCMP and the government did a lousy job of it, so maybe going after the protesters monetarily is the way to go.
Hopefully this sets a precedence so that when we get the inevitable protests against Trans-X, we can sue them into oblivion.
