I just have a comment on the airline passenger bill of rights. Since the bill is coming from the minister, I imagine that whenever he does bring it forward, it will land in this committee's lap.
To my mind, there is no reason to tie the two issues together, especially since the one I proposed has to do with aviation safety, which isn't really the case for the passenger bill of rights. I want to give you an idea of the safety considerations that could be directly linked to a potential aviation disaster. These are factors the committee does or could look at: pilot certification; the amount of flying time, particularly for transcontinental flights; cabin air quality; the ratio of crew members to passengers; lasers; cosmic radiation; toxic fumes; and inspector training. All of those elements are directly linked to our ability to make aviation as safe as possible, not only for workers, but also for all air passengers. If possible, I would like to limit our study to safety considerations and spend the appropriate amount of time examining them.
