Thank you, Mr. Speaker. The Member's questions about safety considerations with respect to large commercial vehicles on the highway and blowing snow, I will just take this opportunity to say drivers should always remember to drive to the conditions of the road. Drivers must always slow down and pay extra attention when the visibility is poor. However, we are looking at some legislative changes to our Motor Vehicles Act. Some of the private legislative proposals are to have clean and clear taillights as commercial vehicles do travel down our highways. It has been in consideration for a couple of years now. I believe the Member is asking for additional safety lights, Mr. Speaker. Adding extra equipment may be beyond the scope of our government as it may be a National Safety Code requirement and getting manufacturers to install additional lights on their vehicles. Thank you.
