--on why the letter has no merit.
If you look at the order of the day, it is, pursuant to Standing Order 108(2), a study of the “railway costing review”. Transport Canada's response is on a service review; that is not what we asked them to come here for. We want them to answer questions on why the railways are being allowed to gouge farmers, according to the Canadian Wheat Board study, of $275 million in 2008 and 2009.
That's why they were asked here, and that excuse is unacceptable.
