I will move on to another topic, Mr. Chair.
Ms. Bateman, you said that you wanted to give the minister the power to close these crossings. If the minister shuts down a railway crossing, who is going to pay for that? What will happen in that regard? Will we ask the railway company to take a position on the matter? Does the Department of Transport have money to invest in this sector? As for the federal program my colleague was talking about, a lot of municipalities complain that they have trouble with that program because it is not accessible enough.
What is being done about the cost of repairs? How long will it take if a railway crossing is closed by the minister and the railway company decides not to pay? How long will the railway crossing stay closed? What are the expectations in that regard?
