Thank you, Mr. Chair.
If I can be blunt, I think the wording and the word “directed” is very bad to use in this particular case. It also brings uncertainty to the marketplace from an economic perspective. As a business person looking at transportation modes.... It doesn't mean that through the great Conservative government's initiatives like transit passes, tax deductions, and other things, we can't encourage people to use public transit, fund it, and use competition. But I think it detracts from it. It creates some error and some amount of uncertainty in the marketplace in which we're trying to encourage people to invest to create more modes of transportation and better modes.
I don't know how the French translation comes out, but I'm very uncomfortable with the English and the word “directed”.
