VIA Rail to resume service Monday
VIA Rail says trains will be running again Monday. Protesters are also reported to have left the St-Lambert encampment that stopped the Candiac Exo line, so that’s expected back as well on Monday.
Clarification, as noted below in comments: it’s the trains between Quebec City, Montreal and Ottawa that should be running.

Kate, maybe add “some” trains there. Doesn’t look like the most important, Montreal-Toronto, will be running. The protesters are still in Belleville afterall.
Also, Montreal-Ottawa has been running for days now already… something odd about that article.

The encampment in st-Lambert was actually blocking the Mont-Saint Hilaire line. The Candiac line passes Kahnawake, so it’s definitely going to be blocked for the extent of this crisis

Thanks for the clarifications, folks.
