Transport committee  I'm stretching here a bit, but I would say probably in the order of 70% goes into safety in terms of technology investment and, as James said, rail ties, ballast, cars, and locomotives.

Transport committee  It would be capacity expansion.

Transport committee  I'll start with our operating employees. They are very talented, well trained, well motivated. They know their jobs extremely well. I've had the pleasure of working with many of them myself. But they are humans, and humans make mistakes. Furthermore, things such as electronic d

Transport committee  If it's egregious, if it's willful, then punitive options absolutely should be there. The minister and the public hold us accountable for safe operations. We take that accountability very seriously, and there's no reason that this shouldn't extend to our employees. For the most p

Transport committee  We know there are privacy concerns, but we also know there's a process for that. You probably know we have recording devices in locomotives today for conversations that occur between rail traffic controllers and the train crews, so those occur. We have black boxes, if you will, t

Transport committee  We manage it through technology. If the crossing, by the regulation, has a certain cross-product—trains and vehicles, certain speeds of trains and vehicles—that will dictate whether the crossing needs to have a warning system or if it's sufficient to have crosswalks or a stop sig

Transport committee  In some cases, yes.

Transport committee  It's putting in a warning system. In the worst case, in the riskiest case, you would want to grade-separate the crossing. But as I said earlier, if you get to that extent, and we share the cost with the municipality, you want to be looking at why you wouldn't take the opportuni

Transport committee  I agree.

Transport committee  That was done well.

Transport committee  That's one example of something that was done well.

Transport committee  We would agree.

Transport committee  Well, that's what we're seeing. The current regulation says to look at this individual crossing and never mind the crossings that are directly adjacent to it. In the city of Langley right now, we have one where we had the Transport Canada notice in order, we've upgraded the cro

Transport committee  One is that the number one cause of train derailments is track infrastructure failure. We do more track infrastructure inspection with technology than is required by regulation. That's one of the reasons why we're leading the industry. The other one is investment in technology.

Transport committee  It's a difficult question because I haven't seen the list.
