Mr. Speaker, this is costing the potash mines in my riding a lot of money. A lot of jobs are counting on us to put this rail back on its tracks.
I would have assumed that the NDP members would have agreed with us because I am speaking about Saskatchewan, which is where their counterparts are located, and they are very concerned about this. I would be ashamed if I were them. They should be calling their counterparts in Saskatchewan to find out that potash is not moving. My riding has five potash mines, plus we are the wheat and barley capital. Saskatchewan is suffering because of this rail strike. We are losing millions of dollars a day, at least on demurrage costs, and by not being able to get our grain to the port. We are also losing markets.
I think it is time to close this debate down.
