Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you to the minister and officials for being here today.
According to the Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers, the number of oil carloads, tank loads of oil, was 173,000 in 2013. In 2014 it was 140,000, which is a decrease year-over-year, so Mr. McGuinty may have to rework some of his numbers.
Minister, with regard to the world-class tanker safety system, we had originally put in place an expert panel to make recommendations. How is the world-class tanker safety system reflected in the estimates for 2015-2016 now that the recommendations are becoming operational?
