The fact is this: CN Rail has entered into a discontinuance process according to the Canadian Transportation Agency. They are in that process right now. No decisions have been taken regarding this part of the rail, and indeed, no decisions have been taken by VIA Rail on this part of the rail.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3567534\" data-originallang=\"en\">The member would serve his constituents better by telling them the truth.</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"3567533\" data-originallang=\"en\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, il est tr\u00e8s utile de pr\u00e9senter les faits r\u00e9els au lieu de tenir des propos alarmistes, comme le fait l'opposition. Voici ce qu'il en est: selon l'Office des transports du Canada, le CN a entam\u00e9 un processus d'interruption du service, qui est en cours actuellement. Aucune d\u00e9cision n'a \u00e9t\u00e9 prise au sujet de cette partie de la voie ferr\u00e9e. Il va de soi que VIA Rail n'a pris aucune d\u00e9cision \u00e0 ce sujet non plus.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3567534\" data-originallang=\"en\">Le d\u00e9put\u00e9 servirait mieux ses \u00e9lecteurs s'il leur disait la v\u00e9rit\u00e9.</p>"
