Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I briefly wanted to go back to the much-talked-about train in Via Rail's regional fleet.
The Quebec government has invested $872 million to repair a section of rail between Matapédia and Gaspé that had been completely abandoned, was in poor condition and couldn't be used by Via Rail. The Quebec government took the bull by the horns and decided to fund the construction and repair of those rails so that trains can finally return to Gaspé. However, Via Rail told us it wasn't even sure it would be able to provide adequate service using its present rolling stock when that section to Gaspé is opened.
What commitment will your government make to ensure that the people of Gaspé have rail transportation and that the Quebec government hasn't invested $872 million in vain?
