Thank you.
I can try to answer that question. Our view is that there is a role for the federal government. I think this is an area of shared jurisdiction. That is the way we would describe it.
I would draw the parallel again to public transit in an urban context. There, you have a clear jurisdiction for municipal governments, but public transit systems are funded by provincial governments and by the federal government. They're increasingly funded by the federal government. As I noted, we have a very strong partner in the federal government when it comes to urban public transit. I don't see any reason—and other witnesses have suggested there's no reason—that the federal government couldn't play a bigger role going forward.
To the points around the diversity of the regional needs in this country, there's a role for the federal government around coordination. There are many different models that could be adopted to implement a national transportation system, and the federal government is best placed to play that coordination role.
