Mr. Chair, as a former corporate lawyer who litigated and I look at the plain English language of this, what I see is cause of action all over this for different parties who will argue that somebody else was in fact involved as well, and not just their client. This is why we've evolved, especially in terms of the specificity of “charge, the management or control” at the time of the accident or release, on so many of the transportation of dangerous goods questions. We've narrowed it down precisely to circumscribe the possibility of saying others were involved too.
