We have taken a number of very significant actions to enhance rail safety. In 2012, we completed more than 30,000 inspections. We continue to hire more inspectors. We have made an investment of about $100 million in improving rail safety through new information sharing agreements with the provinces, proper classification regulations, and the list goes on.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3576383\" data-originallang=\"en\">The member will also know that there are permanent rules in place to ensure that with respect to the transportation of dangerous goods, there are two operators at all times.</p>",
