First, I would like to say that my association deals with maritime law. With respect to the proposed amendments in the Canada Shipping Act to extend Mr. Wright's company's liability to his agents, mandataries, etc., we support that. The problem with the bill originally was that when Mr. Wright's company was there, they thought they were going to be doing the shovelling themselves. They since have realized it's much cheaper to hire other companies to shovel for them under their direction. At the time, nobody thought about agents, as far as I can recall, but I think it's good that they have it. That's number one.
Number two, his recommendation that we would move inland and when Mr. Wright's company is working at, let's say, Lac-Megantic, where they worked very hard this summer—not the western, but the eastern branch of his company, they worked hard—and give them the same immunity there, we have no real view on that. But you have to be careful because there are constitutional issues here. When they are cleaning up a spill from a truck that has overturned on a highway in some province, can Bill C-3 give them immunity for what they're doing on that provincial land, under that truck spill? I don't think you can. I would say you should be careful about getting involved in that.
I have no language to propose because we're marine anyway.
