We were very comfortable when we saw the preamble purpose clause included in the act. We spent a lot of time within the coastal communities and there was a grey area or a vacuum about who the pilots serve. The impression with the communities was that somehow the pilots serve industry exclusively, whereas actually pilotage serves the people of Canada, the environment and public safety, in the same context that we all promote the economic well-being of Canada. I think the preamble purpose clause being included strengthens the act on how industry as a whole, shipping as a whole and pilotage as a whole will go forward for the next 20 or 30 years. Yes, we are satisfied with it.
