Just briefly, Mr. Chair, it's perfectly within our purview as a committee to seek improvements to the bill based on what we've heard or on what we know. The issue of sustainability is something that's out there in the community and that Canadians feel very strongly about.
Does it upset the apple cart? Does it in any way throw into some uncertainty the bill? No. It's a statement of principles around a national transportation policy. What we have is a change or a shift from the national transportation policy that is currently in place, which is very detailed.
Even with the amendment that Mr. Laframboise is presenting, it's certainly not more detailed than the current transportation policy, but what we are trying to do is address a couple of weaknesses within that particular clause of the bill. I don't think it's a big issue. The one on sustainability I think most of the public would agree with, and it doesn't in any way contravene or upset other parts of the bill. And that's why I moved those motions, though I think Mr. Laframboise's consolidated motion is an improvement.
