There was a problem in that VIA Rail was not able to—at least according to the newspaper reports—to provide instructions to passengers in French along a supposedly bilingual corridor. From a security standpoint, this is a major problem.
How is it, first of all, that VIA does not have staff on board capable of providing instructions in French at all times, particularly in an emergency when the extent of the problem is unknown? And secondly, what have you done, or what do you intend to do, to remedy the problem?
