Both the report as well as Transport Canada's own publication “Moving Forward”, which preceded the report in its publication by a few months, talked about the requirement of a culture shift not just within railway companies, but within Transport Canada itself.
I want to probe three areas, if I may, in that regard. One is with respect to personnel.
On page 10, “Moving Forward” says that Transport Canada “will maintain the capability to apply its traditional compliance inspection and audit activity — while augmenting its capability to perform system audits and assessments.”
What did that mean in 2007 with respect to personnel? Is it that in addition to the inspectorate they would be looking to add new auditors for system audit, or that they would cross-train the existing inspectorate to do the additional function of audit and evaluation? What was the philosophy or the decision by Transport Canada?
