I have a couple of observations. I've listened intently to the presentations today and I certainly understand the frustrations. During the rail safety discussions in this committee over the years, I've had my own reservations about the performance of rail companies and their responsibilities.
I want to cut to the chase, and I hope this doesn't come across the wrong way. Is it possible, after years of feeling mistreated by rail companies, that you're not really seeking a balanced resolution model but a punitive model that tips in your favour now? That's my first question.
Second, is it possible that, with the same sentiment, you feel justified in asking the government rather than the courts to act as the hammer? That's the question.
