Madam Chair, as the hon. member has said, there is a growing concern, but not everything we read or see in the newspapers and press can be attributed to this. We could drive coast to coast in 36 hours, and there is nowhere that would be required. Any changes have to be based on sound science. They have to be based on credible information.
We are working with industry on that. Of course there have been a tremendous amount of changes. There are air-ride trailers now. We even have air-conditioned cattle plots. We have all sorts of things now.
Every once in a while there is an accident or something happens, there's an unforeseen act of God, so to speak. Having said that, we are very concerned that everything is handled humanely. There is a thing called human error that sometimes factors into it. Any of these decisions will be based on sound science and the best interests of the industry involved.
