I appreciate the reasons that Mrs. Kusie wishes to have our committee look at this, but I tend to agree with Mr. Bittle.
I did pull up the mandate of the transportation, infrastructure and communities committee on the House of Commons website. I don't see very much relevance there. It speaks specifically to “federal programs and policies for air, rail, road and marine transportation”, “federal infrastructure funding such as the Gas Tax Fund and Investing in Canada Plan Bilateral Agreements”, and Crown corporations.
It doesn't speak to pipelines. There's probably another committee that would be better suited to investigating these matters. With all respect to my colleague, I'll be voting against the motion.
