Mr. Speaker, pursuant to Standing Order 32(2) and section 4 of the User Fees Act, I have the honour to table, in both official languages, a copy of the Canadian Grain Commission's proposal to Parliament for user fees and service standards. User fees will be payable as soon as the proposal comes into force.
I look forward to hearing what my colleagues have to say about this important proposal.

Mr. Speaker, from grain to lumber, from chemicals to cars, captive shippers have been asking for legislation since 2007 to provide enforceable level of service contracts. After five years, will we finally see that legislation this week?
Without discrimination, will all level of service contracts include six mandatory elements: services and obligations, communication rules, performance standards, performance metrics, consequences for non-performance, and a dispute settlement mechanism? Will we get that legislation this week?

Mr. Speaker, it is very interesting to hear that from a member who has been here for 13 years before and had done absolutely nothing.
We will fix it. We said that we would introduce a bill during the fall and we will do it.

Mr. Speaker, about the long-delayed rail service review, will the government introduce a new law this spring to require railways to conclude enforceable level-of-service agreements with all their shippers? In every case, without any tiers or categories among the shippers, will all agreements include six mandatory elements: services and obligations, communication rules, performance standards, performance metrics, consequences for non-performance, and dispute settlement mechanisms?
Will we get this law this spring, yes or no?

Mr. Speaker, our government is committed to introducing legislation that would provide shippers with a service agreement template and dispute resolution guidelines.
I would like to thank Mr. Dinning for all the work that he and his team did on facilitating the review.
People have been waiting for a long time. They waited 13 years for the Liberals to do something. We are delivering.
