Mr. Speaker, we recognize what happened and the devastating impact that the expropriation in Mirabel had in the 1960s and 1970s.
However, when people today relate that example to high-speed rail, they are preventing us from achieving our objective of promoting, but also of creating a major project that will reduce our greenhouse gases resulting from transportation.
We are open to consultation. There will be a truly rigorous consultation process where things will be written down, documented and reported. Early consultations are already taking place, but we need to formalize the project to enable more formal and meaningful consultations.
Of course, the people at the UPA will be part of those consultations.
