Does this mean prices are changing for services I'm already receiving?

You should expect to continue to receive the same services you receive today, so long as they are included in Basic Freight or negotiated in your contract. CP's guide to products and services does not supersede your contract.
What happens if I get services that aren't in CP's guide to products and services?
Initially, if such services were intended to be included and are described in the applicable contract, you should expect to continue to receive the services you receive today. If the services are not included in your quote or contract, you and your Account Manager can discuss how updates may impact future fees.
