Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I thank the witnesses for being with us today.
I am happy…. In fact, it’s an odd way to say it. I should instead say that I’m unhappy to note that the situation reported to me by people in the industry in Quebec seems quite comparable to what you’re telling us today. Some witnesses who came to testify here before the committee told us that there was no problem, that everything was fine and that the Driver Inc. model was one of the seven wonders of the world. I’m glad to hear a different tune today.
Based on your experience, do you feel that the rise of the Driver Inc. phenomenon is related to the increase in accidents on the roads? If so, what connection can be made between the two?
Mr. Ludwig can start answering the question. Mr. Hall may then have some comments to add.
