Mr. Speaker, the announcement today and the announcement of a few years ago of $401.2 million flowed from a unanimous report of the transport committee in the House of Commons that called for the revitalization of passenger rail.
I cannot understand why we are being accused of not following Parliament's will. I think Canadians want good passenger rail.
Part of today's announcement will refurbish the western transcontinental fleet that will serve the hon. member's province.
