In October 2016, the TSB, when updating its watchlist of key safety issues, mentioned, for the first time, Transport Canada's slowness in implementing some of its recommendations. At the time, 52 recommendations were over 10 years old and about 36 of them were over 20 years old. That list includes some recommendations related to the railway sector, but most of them have to do with aviation.
We would like measures to be taken, not only by the department, but also by the government. We would also like the safety-related recommendations to be implemented more promptly.
