Madam Speaker, obviously, the Bloc Québécois members support Bill C‑33, and we want it to go to committee so it can be properly studied.
Obviously, we feel it is taking a long time. This summer will mark 10 years since the Lac-Mégantic tragedy. Trains are getting longer and heavier. This is a self-regulating industry that is primarily concerned with serving its shareholders and turning a profit. That takes precedence over public safety and the public good, which are the government's responsibility. We are asking that this be corrected.
Bill C‑33 does this in part; it is a step in the right direction. Is it too little too late? Perhaps.
I want to reiterate that the citizens of Lac-Mégantic are still calling for a public inquiry into what led to this tragedy.
