Transport Committee on Feb. 28th, 2012

[Olivia Chow, NDP, Trinity—Spadina, ON]

Which we do not have.

[Geoff Munro]

Which we do not have operationally today, no.

[The Chair, Conservative, Merv Tweed]

I'll have to interrupt there.

I apologize to the committee members. I was leaving 15 minutes at the end, but I realize that we started 15 minutes early.

I will thank our guests for being here today. We appreciate your input. I'm sure you'll forward whatever has been requested.

With that, I thank you for being here today.

Ms. Chow, do you have a point of order?

[Olivia Chow, NDP, Trinity—Spadina, ON]

Yes.

This morning I thought we had a motion in front of us. I understand that this was a session that we didn't want to interrupt, but I think there was a motion from my colleague Jamie Nicholls—

[Pierre Poilievre, Conservative, Nepean—Carleton, ON]

I'm sorry; I don't mean to interrupt Ms. Chow, but I do have a request for the witnesses before they leave.

[Olivia Chow, NDP, Trinity—Spadina, ON]

No, go ahead. Why don't you do that first?

[The Chair, Conservative, Merv Tweed]

Go ahead, Mr. Poilievre.

[Pierre Poilievre, Conservative, Nepean—Carleton, ON]

Again, I'm sorry to interrupt.

I'm just wondering if you could produce a table for the committee indicating the commercially viable technologies that people are actually using that your agencies have helped bring into existence—

[Olivia Chow, NDP, Trinity—Spadina, ON]

That would be helpful. Perhaps you could also name the municipalities or the jurisdictions or regions that are in fact using them—

[Pierre Poilievre, Conservative, Nepean—Carleton, ON]

—and what precise involvement you had in making it happen.

Thank you.

[A voice]

Thank you. I appreciate it.

[Olivia Chow, NDP, Trinity—Spadina, ON]

As well, would they be able to look at the Transport Canada regulations that would be a barrier? Sorry; that would be Transport Canada.

[The Chair, Conservative, Merv Tweed]

We're running out of time here, Ms. Chow.

[Olivia Chow, NDP, Trinity—Spadina, ON]

Sorry.

[The Chair, Conservative, Merv Tweed]

I will advise you that the motion is on record, so it can be brought forward at any time.

[Olivia Chow, NDP, Trinity—Spadina, ON]

I believe they want to deal with it on Thursday morning at the beginning, so we could just get it done first thing and then have the witnesses.

[The Chair, Conservative, Merv Tweed]

It will be on the order paper for sure.

The meeting is adjourned.
