Mr. Speaker, I want to thank my colleague for his speech. In the House of Commons he often speaks to transport-related issues.
We all know that freight and passenger transport is vital to Canada. In fact, that is what Canada was built on and what continues to contribute to Canada's economic prosperity.
The hon. member talked about how other countries have managed to balance the interests of the shippers, those who use the railway for moving freight and people. I would like him to elaborate on that.
