Quebec government's marine and river transportation policy
Mr. Morissette and Sodes played a crucial role in the development of the Quebec government's first Marine and River Transportation Policy, published in 2001. The same year saw the creation of the Forum de concertation sur le transport maritime, which met for the first time. This consultative body, which brings together Quebec's maritime industry and the Quebec government, has been set up to ensure the effective, concerted implementation of the various measures proposed in the Marine and River Transportation Policy. Since its inception, the Forum has been co-chaired by the Chairman of Sodes and the Quebec Minister of Transport.
