Transport committee  We in fact look at all railway companies. If it has been one or two years since we have inspected a company, even if nothing has really happened, we figure it's time to drop by to see how things are and to make sure the system is as good as it was during the last inspection. We w

Transport committee  There has been an increase of 12 in the last year, so there were less than that. But to say the least, it has been an extremely stable environment in the number of inspectors. So prior to 2001 we had a total, I believe, of 78 or 79 inspectors across the country, including Ottawa.

Transport committee  We conducted the appropriate on-site inspection. The last I heard about this issue is that the townspeople were told to speak with CN. As long as track safety rules are respected, we cannot take action under our regulatory framework by ordering, for example, that the speed limit
