Canada's Transport Minister Marc Garneau has established new rail safety measures in response to a Transportation Safety Board of Canada (TSB) investigation into a 2017 fatal accident at CN's Melville Yard in Saskatchewan.

The measures include an order requiring the rail industry to adopt new practices for employees to follow when conducting switching operations to ensure that equipment is properly secured.
