Mr. Speaker, a couple of years ago the railways gave notice on which track they wished to abandon in Canada. They followed a certain process.
What we have done in various discussions is remind them of the obligations, remind them of adhering to the spirit of the National Transportation Act amendments a couple of years ago which gave them the freedom to operate in a businesslike fashion, and also keep in mind the public interest.
If we find this is not being done, then certainly I will communicate further with the railways and perhaps take further action.
