Mr. Speaker, as I said earlier, Transport Canada continues to monitor this matter closely. In my opinion, the degree of co-operation exhibited by the port authority and the other stakeholders shows just how seriously this problem has been taken. In light of the various concrete measures that various stakeholders have implemented over the past year, I am confident that the issues that were identified are now better understood and better managed.
Canada's Minister of Transport understands that Canadian port authorities are important to our country's economic development. Working with various partners, port authorities know how to implement the necessary measures to support their development while respecting the environment.
