Let me switch to the topic of safety. What part of the money that's earmarked for the transport ministry is going to be fixing the problems that Canadian airplanes are having?
Recently a series of articles in the Toronto Star and Hamilton Spectator uncovered the fact that approximately 80,000 passengers have been put at risk over the last five years when planes came dangerously close to one another. There haven't been thorough inspections by the ministry to ensure the safety and working order of the planes in Canadian skies.
Judge Moshansky, who led the public inquiry into the 1989 Air Ontario crash in Dryden, has stated that he has serious doubts that Transport Canada can properly fulfill its function of providing a safe aviation environment for the travelling public with fewer aviation inspectors.
What part of your funding would go into making sure that Canadians on planes are going to be safe?
