Natural Resources committee  That is certainly our understanding.

Natural Resources committee  Yes, it's at least that. Our calculations show that the exceedance is much larger. It goes to a question about the interpretation of the International Atomic Energy standards. We were assured that we would get a clarification of that at the September 28 hearing; we have never received that clarification.

Natural Resources committee  It's a pleasure to be here.

Natural Resources committee  It was an adventure down to Rochester, New York. Then the cab driver could not find number 1 Wellington Street and dropped me off way over on the other side. Even the RCMP didn't know where it was.

Natural Resources committee  Thank you very much, Mayor Lapointe. Chair Benoit, and distinguished members of the committee, thank you very much for this opportunity to speak today. The second major concern we have is that the shipment exceeds the International Atomic Energy Agency safety standards for total amount of radioactivity allowed on a single ship.
