Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you, Mr. Minister, for being here again.
You mentioned the Canadian Transportation Agency in your remarks. I want to focus my comments there to start with.
In the last budget, the government added $11 million to the CTA. Following that, we saw the CTA's passenger complaint backlog more than triple to 42,000 complaints from passengers who have been impacted by our broken air transportation system. We saw that your government has more than doubled the number of senior managers at the CTA over the last five years and has given them performance bonuses every single year while passenger complaint backlogs have grown to over 40,000.
Why would you give bonuses to senior managers at the CTA when they have so clearly failed to deliver for Canadian passengers who are looking for action from that agency?
