Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Minister of Transport.
Since the horrible crash of Swissair Flight 111 off Peggy's Cove in Nova Scotia there have been several cases of emergency landings in Canada due to smoke in the cockpit, including another one just last night in St. John's, Newfoundland.
Many aviation experts have identified kapton wiring as a possible cause for frequent wiring failure in aircraft. Considering that the minister often says that safety is the number one priority in his department, what is the minister doing, if anything, to assure that kapton wiring is not a hazard in these aircraft?
