The idea of modernizing this law had been raised, I think, probably prior to my arrival there. Given the fact that the Quebec government, with the Government of Manitoba as an intervenor, was in a process with Air Canada, it was felt that we would wait until there was some kind of conclusion to that. Then it was felt—and I supported this—that it would be an ideal opportunity for us to modernize the act, to clarify it, in the hopes of avoiding litigation in the future. As you know, the Quebec government and the Manitoba government had expressed their intention to do this as a result of Air Canada working with both those governments.
