Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you to the witnesses.
In regard to the helicopters, I would just note that you said you based all of this on data. But when I saw the statistics you presented, I was confused by them, because you didn't assign to the statistics the weight of the increased traffic. You didn't do that. You kept that separate. So we really couldn't use the statistics you gave us to plot a trend line in safety. If you show only the accidents and you don't show the number of flights, the number of helicopters that are active, the data are not correct.
So you presented data to us here that didn't really show the situation that I would interpret when I look at the data you showed us about Canada having twice as many helicopters flying and the number of accidents remaining the same: I would say there has been an improvement in helicopter safety over the last 10 years. So your data is really quite misleading.
