Thank you, Mr. Laframboise.
In fact, I don't want to stand here today and defend the previous regime. However, I would like to make a clarification on the 1,400 inspectors you mentioned earlier on. In simply want to point out that the reduction in this number is the result of organizational changes within the department. With the creation of NAV Canada, a number of inspectors went there. Moreover, another group went to airport services. So, in a general sense, the number of inspectors has not decreased, colleagues.
Am I in a position to specify the nature of the amendments currently being considered? No. However, I am perfectly prepared to listen and work in collaboration with the colleagues around this table to meet the objectives you shared with me here today and at other times. With respect to the number of inspectors, I believe it is indeed incumbent upon us to make sure there is some continuity.
The theory according to which the management system will, in 5, 6 or even 10 years, replace what has existed and should normally continue to exist is, in my view, incorrect. As I mentioned a few moments ago, the objective is to sustain civil aviation safety and make sure these standards are complied with and well understood throughout the country, and that they are a source of pride for us throughout the world. The goal here is not to rob Peter to pay Paul. On the contrary.
