Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you, Minister and your associates, for coming out to this committee, and for your excitement and eagerness to have a dialogue here with the committee members.
We have talked enough about Americans and Canadians. I am going back to the provinces, because you mentioned that you had enough discussions with the provincial counterparts and also the stakeholders. The transport of dangerous goods on the roads is also regulated by the provincial jurisdictions.
My concern is this. Will the truck drivers have to have two permits to transport dangerous goods, and will they have to go through training twice? Can you also elaborate particularly on whether the permits that are required on the federal scene will satisfy the requirements on all provincial levels? If not, then what would it require to harmonize this into that situation?
