Merci beaucoup, monsieur le président.
You've been very eloquent, Monsieur Bélanger, Mr. Kelsey, and Mr. McNeil, in saying that essentially you don't see any difficulties with the bill. But you also mentioned in your presentation, Mr. Kelsey, that this has been, in a sense, a reissue or a re-editing of previous bills that have not made it to royal assent.
So I'd like each of you to respond very specifically as to what would happen if the House falls before this bill is adopted, and we're back to square one? Particularly with the issue of mediating, but also with the issue of rail line discontinuance, what would that mean for each of these transit authorities in terms of your plans over the next couple of years if you're having to come back again in two or three years on the same issue?
