Mr. Speaker, whenever I think about railways I think of passengers. I also think of freight service, because I have watched freight trains as well. I know how significant rail freight is. I absolutely agree that, instead of dealing with things piecemeal, we need a national transportation strategy that would look at both the transportation of goods and the transportation of people. It is long overdue.
I urge my colleagues across the way to seriously consider supporting my colleague's move to bring forward legislation that would give us a national transportation strategy to take care of the movement of both humans and goods.
