Transport committee  It did come up earlier. I'll just repeat for your benefit what I had to say. What we expect is that Transport Canada will provide us with their expectations and their guidelines, and then after that, industry will take over and provide it.

Transport committee  I echo that. We don't have any concern there.

Transport committee  Yes, we're fine with the inspection powers.
