I think public access, generally, is in the best interest. If it stays within Transport Canada or related agencies, we don't know what's going on.
We've had safety management systems from almost the beginning back in 2001 or 2002. There have been numerous reviews. In 2021, the Auditor General said it remained to be seen if SMS was just checking off regulatory boxes and not examining its effectiveness. Just before that, the environment commissioner and the Auditor General's office said that the window was still open for a recurrence of Lac-Mégantic.
The recommendations of the committee are pretty strong in terms of public access and community access. Sometimes it sounds to me like another Groundhog Day. They keep coming back. Let's resolve it, once and for all, and mandate good safety management systems that are accessible to the public as the Transportation Safety Board and the OAG have recommended.
