CP Comments on CN's Request to Name David Starling as Intended Trustee News provided by Share this article Share this article CALGARY, AB, April 26, 2021 /PRNewswire/ - Canadian Pacific Railway Limited (TSX: CP) (NYSE: CP) issued the following statement about Canadian National's ("CN's") request to name David Starling as intended trustee in its unsolicited bid of Kansas City Southern ("KCS"): David Starling has advised us of CN's request, and we have no objection. As we have said previously, Mr. Starling is a fine choice as a trustee - that is why we appointed him to this role in the CP-KCS transaction. As a former President and CEO of KCS, he knows the business well and is independent of CP. Mr. Starling's expertise and leadership is clearly valued by both CP and CN. Should Mr. Starling agree, we are honored that CN has chosen the same trustee we have, however, the two proposals themselves are much different.
