Thank you, Mr. Sawatzky. That is such a great question.
We ask a lot of the Lower Mainland. A lot of people live there. It's a very dense urban area. It serves such an important strategic purpose as a logistics hub for all Canadians. At the same time, people living in the Lower Mainland benefit from the economic activity and the jobs that this entails. We need to continue to strive to get that balance right for the quality of life of people living in your riding and in developing the opportunities and the logistical essentials that Canadians rely on.
Rail in the Lower Mainland is a bit like a plate of spaghetti. It has a lot of bottlenecks and single points of failure—things that we need to work on, you and I together, to make sure we get more fluid transportation and expand our ability to serve Canadians. Of course, we are always very mindful of the needs of the residents of the Lower Mainland. You can expect to see continued investment in small and large projects in our transport sector in the Lower Mainland. These are job-creating opportunities but also projects that need to be done with great sensitivity so that we ensure that folks continue to enjoy the incredible part of the world you live in.
