Well, we hope that it will cease to be an issue immediately. That's the work that we're doing to invest in the tools that we need to catch these bad actors. Today's announcement goes a long way to sending a message throughout the industry that we are taking even further measures by sharing information—by sharing information back and forth with ESDC and the CRA—and by working with provinces and territories in a deep collaboration.
I would say that we all share this deep grief that you're talking about. We have all known people who have lost their lives. I live in northern Ontario. Highway 11/17 goes through my riding and is in many places only two lanes. We have invested $70 million towards doubling the lanes in my riding, and I expect that we will work in partnership with the provinces and territories to continue that work to make our roads safe.
It's an issue of infrastructure, it's an issue of investment and it's an issue of cracking down on bad drivers. We need the provinces for that, by the way, because if someone is licensed to drive in this country and they don't actually have the skills to drive, they're putting my son's life in danger, who is also, by the way, a licensed AZ driver who is on the roads hauling equipment back and forth from job sites.
You know, when you talk about victims, I really want you to know that we all share the grief, and we all share the responsibility to push our provinces and territories to do better on behalf of all of us, in partnership with the work we're doing today.
