Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I understand that the Liberals get a bit sensitive when I talk about the minister being accountable and active on this file. They might think it's okay to wait two-plus weeks to engage with companies that experienced massive travel delays and whose passengers were severely impacted over the holidays. If that's the level of accountability and leadership that they believe the minister should have, I guess they can defend that. I make no apologies for saying the minister should have been more engaged, more quickly with all industry players as this crisis unfolded.
I want to talk a bit about the food and beverage situation. At what point does Via switch over from a point-of-sale situation, where you're selling food and beverages to passengers, to giving it out for free because you're in a difficult situation?
How many hours into a crisis like this does the food that's on board become available to all passengers, regardless of their ability to pay?
