Mr. Speaker, we maintain our core function and we have not cut any front-line safety inspectors. The reality is that we have improved safety for travellers. The number of aviation accidents has fallen by 25% since 2000 while air travel increased significantly. Since 2007, train accidents have decreased by 23% and train derailments have decreased by 37%. These are very good results.
