He states, \u201cI would have thought that in the wake of the tragic crash of the Cougar helicopter at sea in Newfoundland that claimed 17 lives, the last thing the government would do is diminish safety and put even more lives at risk\u201d.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2440673\" data-originallang=\"en\"> In the face of this expert opinion, why is the government still prepared to put the lives of people in danger?</p>",
