It reminds one of a Buy American program, but it's not actually about excluding folks. It's simply saying that we do good work in this country and you can source it here.
That's what you're doing presently. You're not actually giving an advantage to anybody through a legislative program. You're just simply looking at the competitive market and saying, “You know what? We can buy brake lines that come from Manitoba or Ontario and we can buy steel from here.” It's actually all sourced in this country. What an amazing way to actually create jobs.
I know that my friends across the way want to do that, so it seems incumbent upon us to find a way to make the rail operators in this country understand that it's in their best interests to start making those purchases now, it would seem to me. We're going to have to find a way to encourage them to do that.
But as the chair said, we only have five minutes.
I probably have about a minute and a half left, Mr. Chair.
