Mr. Speaker, let us put ourselves in the shoes of the people of Terrebonne, Mascouche and Mirabel. Alto's CEO is confirming that there will be expropriations, but he is hopeful that it will not be the primary tool that is used. So he is confirming that it could happen.
Our people want respect. The towns of Terrebonne, Mascouche and Mirabel want real consultation on the route. They want real local economic spinoffs. The north shore is not going to lie down and be bullied into accepting the high-speed rail.
Will the Liberals finally demand that Alto seek social licence?
