On the fact that there is a safety issue with small tugs we agree, and we've been taking a series of steps and actions to address that through outreach, oversight and enforcement.
Wiping away the distinction between larger and smaller vessels is not.... We've certainly raised the bar for the tugs under 15 tonnes, and we're always looking at what else we can do in that respect. But going in and rewriting the Canada Shipping Act to eliminate the distinction between smaller vessels and larger vessels would be inconsistent with the international marine safety system.
We're continuing to look at that. I would agree with the member that we see a higher incident rate, risk rate, for smaller vessels, whether it's a passenger vessel—these passenger vessels under 12 passengers do not have the same requirements as the larger ferries and the larger cruise ships—and we see it on the commercial side. On both sides we're actually trying to strengthen that because that is where the risk is, and so the question is well put.
