Mr. Speaker, the trawler Rally 2 , which belongs to a company named Madelipêche, recently experienced serious mechanical problems which endangered the lives of its crew members. These problems seem similar to those which, in November 1990, resulted in the sinking of a sister trawler, Le Nadine , and in the death of eight crew members.
Will the Minister of Transport confirm that the federal office responsible for transport safety is conducting an investigation on the mechanical problems experienced last week by the Rally 2 in the Magdalen Islands? Otherwise, will the minister pledge to shed light on that incident?
