Thank you, Ms. Brown.
From my past experience and current review of the data, I agree that Canada has an excellent safety record, particularly when you look at the international aspects.
With respect to how you go about auditing and so on, the way it was with the private operator certificate program was that the operators had to have their safety management system and have it audited by an independent accredited auditor of the CBAA. CBAA had extensive training and quality assurance programs with those auditors, including monthly telephone conference call meetings and going along on the audits to ensure that the auditors were doing their job properly. That was how CBAA was doing it.
Certainly, as with any program, improvements can be made, and those improvements were in the process of being undertaken.
