Mr. Speaker, I congratulate the parliamentary secretary on his very interesting speech. We are certainly going to support the bill, which we feel is an excellent one.
On several occasions, both sides of the House have supported motions or bills that have been followed only by spoken and written words, but not by action.
This time, will there really be some action? The safety of Canadians is of concern to us all from east to west. As I said earlier today, historically, our railway system has united Canada. It is extremely important to make the development of our railway system a priority.
Can the parliamentary secretary assure me that the government will move from words to actions?
