Look, my vision for Via Rail is to continue to provide, and hopefully increase, an affordable, accessible, environmentally friendly, sustainable and diverse service across Canada. The fact that the corridor is going to look different than it does today doesn't impact what my vision for Via Rail is—it's to continue or enhance the service in all of the regions that we serve now. Let's not forget that some of those regions are not only long distances, but they're also remote, where access to transportation is very challenging without the train.
