Thank you, Mr. Chairman.
I am happy to be at the committee this morning, because the Charny train station is in my riding and several constituents have spoken to me about the problem.
From the outset, I would like to congratulate the committee for dealing with this issue. You have a great deal of perseverance, you work hard, and that is to your credit.
My first question deals with an issue that we discussed a little earlier. How do you compare regulations for railway facilities with other facilities under federal jurisdiction, like airports? Mr. Bazinet, I know that you mentioned that briefly. Is there really a big difference between the two? Are there more deficiencies on the rail side?
