That's what Daniel Slunder told us. He told us there were 50 fewer inspectors now than there were in 2009 when he appeared before this same committee. He told us that the question of Transport Canada's rosy forecast is “based on a simple sleight of hand. Inspections, once required annually, can now be as infrequent as once every five years.” There's a whole litany of evidence put forward by the front-line people. I'm not going to cast aspersions on people whose jobs it is to keep us safe. I don't think that's reasonable. You're not doing that either. But I think we should be heeding some of the warnings being put forward by the front-line inspectors.
Thank you very much.
