Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Again I want to thank you so much for your time here today.
I'm not sure if you're aware of or have had a chance to look at some of the investments that have taken place in the last eight or nine months, particularly in security. Obviously this new Conservative government has seen some of the issues. For instance, since the ministerial order that was issued at the beginning of last summer, rail accidents have gone down by 25% in 2006 compared to 2005.
I wonder if you have seen some of the investments this government has made. There's been $95 million in rail and urban transit security, $26 million in air cargo security, $303 million in border security strategies, $930 million in marine security, $101 million in border guard security, and another $133 million over two years to CATSA.
Not to throw money at an issue, but do you think this government is going in the right direction to deal with issues like that, with ministerial orders and money in particular areas of high need, such as the airlines...and CN accidents over rail? Do you think that's the right step to take?
Another one is the Railway Safety Act review, to which this government has just appointed a board. Do you think that's the right step to take to go forward from here?
