Thank you, Madam Chair.
I thank the witnesses who are here.
Mr. Guy, some of my colleagues and some witnesses have said that ports are not essential. But I think that ports and railways are the backbone of the economy.
Strikes can lead to business closures. I won't go so far as to say that it can even lead to suicidal ideation, but a business going bankrupt can cause a lot of problems. That's significant.
What do you think of the statement that ports are not essential?
