Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I have met with the Great Lakes Pilotage Authority on an issue that has come to light that I wonder if we may put before our committee, or perhaps at least entertain at steering committee. Perhaps Mr. Laframboise may have some concerns as well.
The Marine Pilots' Association is concerned about proposed amendments to their regulations that may take away the Great Lakes Pilotage Authority's ability to issue the certificates for pilots. There's some great concern that this may actually go to the shipowners themselves. It's a matter of great concern to them.
I wonder whether there is anyone else who is concerned, perhaps on the Quebec side—the Bloc Québécois may be concerned about this issue as well—and whether it's something we may entertain at steering committee, perhaps to bring forward to this committee to study.
