Via Rail, as a Crown corporation, like other Crowns, is responsible for its operations, so it is up to the management of Via Rail, when an incident like this happens or just in their regular operations, to ensure performance. It's the responsibility of the board of Via Rail to ensure that happens in their interaction, so the minister, as the portfolio minister responsible, will set expectations to the chair of the board.
