Absolutely, and not only to me but to many of my constituents. We have one area in my riding.... It's actually funny because I worked so hard. There is a crossing—I think there are 40 trains a day—right in the heart of my riding. It cuts through my riding. Forty trains a day.... People whose families live on one side invariably are signed up to hockey on the other one, so it's a source of enormous frustration.
I've been working incredibly hard to make sure that we somehow can work with all levels of government to have an underpass at that crossing to make sure that not only are the problems repaired but that it goes under.... When you find out that an accident could happen and the minister has no power to shut it...yes, I was incredulous. This was my motivation for this bill, because that one crossing in my riding is such a source of frustration. People are always complaining about the number of trains, and counting them, and saying, “I was waiting for nineteen and a half minutes today.” It didn't take much from my riding to find out that this was a priority. In fact, we had a lot of feedback.
