From successive attempts at this, it appears that just because you don't do the volume, you are collateral damage. It's seen as the way it is; just grin and bear it. You'll have experiences like we're having in a border town, where 40,000 vehicles a day cross, but it's still not enough to warrant a change because maybe 12 restaurants want to do this. It's also very important for our local economy, but we still can't get that message through.
I want to quickly move to one of the things that have been discussed. Mr. Medeiros mentioned the regulatory process. In some respects I understand some of the arguments against regulations. We need to look at that, for example, workplace-related deaths. The last number for that is from 2016, when there were 905 deaths in Canada. I know Mr. Moody talked about an issue about the office. A good example is my office in Windsor. It was flooded, and we're fighting with the landlord right now because there's mould and other issues that not only affect the people working in my office, but also the public who come to get services.
What I worry about too is how we do this in a fair way. If we have a reduction in regulation, the bad operators—who often are the reasons regulations are created in the first place, because people couldn't behave properly, and there needed to be some oversight—could use that as a business-related expense to run good operators out of business who are following the proper regulatory regimes, regardless of whether they may or may not believe in them. They follow them—which is a business-related expense, perhaps—for public safety reasons and for fair competition.
