Well, I would echo that fear. I'm driving down that road this weekend for an event in my very large riding. I will tell you that I'm very glad there's no snow on the road. There are times when, as a member of Parliament, I actually cancel visits to small communities in my riding, because the only route in is 11/17. Portions of that road are extremely treacherous.
Now, the good news is that Ontario and Canada have invested in widening the road and increasing lanes. In those parts, the safety obviously has increased, but that work has to continue. I would suggest that the federal government can be a strong partner in those infrastructure priorities that provinces are setting, not just for safety, obviously, which I think should be our primary concern, but also for the economy of our country. You will know, having travelled those roads, that actually there are ports to them. If that shuts down, it shuts down the trade for the entire country.
