We are dealing with a real problem here, Mr. Chair, when you have an omnibus bill of this nature and the airlines, at least the two that were before us, were not consulted. I do see that as a major problem. The officials may not see it as necessary, but when witnesses who are in the industry come before this committee—they are not in the Ottawa bubble—and claim they would like to be alerted, then I really think we ought to listen to that.
I will ask officials the question. You claim you can put it in regulation, but if this paragraph were in the bill, would it do any damage to the intent of the bill? I think it would be a good thing for us to satisfy the airlines that they are going to be alerted. Would it damage the bill to insert this paragraph in it? Is it going to jeopardize anything? I am suggesting that we put it in, for greater certainty, if you want to call it that, and to recognise that they raised a concern and we as parliamentarians are recognizing it.
