Je comprends que le gouvernement est réticent à ce que ce fonds relatif aux hydrocarbures porte sur d'autres substances, mais les contribuables canadiens économiseraient à long terme. Nous devrions envisager de demander aux autres transporteurs de SNPD d'offrir une garantie supplémentaire dans un fonds strictement canadien, la CIDPHN.
I understand the government's reluctance to deal with this SOPF in any way other than as it applies to oil, but perhaps we can, after the fact.If there's money available that will save the Canadian taxpayers money in the long run, then maybe we should be looking at asking the other transporters of hazardous and noxious substances to contribute to a uniquely Canadian fund, the SOPF, in other words, to provide yet another backstop.
