I've heard all of you talk about Bill C-49. It was my colleague Robert Aubin, the NDP transport critic, who moved the motion to split the rail provisions off of Bill C-49, create a new bill, Bill C-51, and refer it directly to the transport committee. Unfortunately, we were not successful, but it was our hope at the time that those particular clauses of Bill C-49 could make a speedy passage. In hindsight, that might have been the best option. Unfortunately, as a House body we have no control over the other place, but I hope they are hearing the message loud and clear that those provisions need to get the attention they deserve.
Thank you, Chair.
