In terms of defining the role, especially if we talk to witnesses about regulations and enforcement, as well as about Transport Canada's role, it is normal for us on the committee to have questions about how a piece of legislation is enforced and the minister' role in that.
I do not agree with the comment that it was just to make the front page in the local papers. It has anyway, and across the country. As far as I know, the role of the Standing Committee on Transport, Infrastructure and Communities is also to study the Aeronautics Act, its implementation and the minister's role. That is why my questions for the deputy minister are relevant in terms of how this legislation is applied.
