I can start on this one. Thanks for the question.
Actually, this goes back to an ask that a number of the railway's customers made, going back to Bill C-49, which was for for the agency to go out and investigate these types of matters independently. Minister Garneau put some conditions on it. He made it conditional on his approving an investigation and reserving the right to impose certain criteria for how the investigation is conducted. What we think would be even better would be to give the watchdog the power to go out and investigate things that need investigation on its own, without these special limitations.
It's Transport Canada that sets transportation policy in Canada; there should be no fear that the agency is all of a sudden going to make policy. The agency's job is to go out and investigate situations when things are not working the way they're supposed to. I would very much appreciate having the agency act more independently in the scenarios that you're talking about, Mr. Aubin.
