Mr. Brown, I've also spoken with local fire departments, and I've heard a lot of concern, both from fire departments and municipalities, about taking on the added responsibility of maintaining training, of having proper equipment. Many of these fire departments are volunteer. They have their hands full just addressing structural fires in the community and responding to highway accidents, that sort of thing.
If a volunteer fire department did not feel it wanted to take on the added responsibility of responding to rail-related incidents involving dangerous goods, what would CN do in those instances?
