Transport Canada is investigating whether any federal rules or regulations were broken in connection to the deadly train derailment in Lac-Mégantic, Que., in July.

CBC News has learned that Transport Canada is searching the New Brunswick offices of Irving Oil after obtaining a search warrant this week to help determine whether all safety rules were followed.

"Transport Canada is carrying out its investigation at the offices of Irving Oil in Saint John, New Brunswick," a spokesperson for Transport Minister Lisa Raitt told CBC News Friday.

The rules and regulations are set out in the Railway Safety Act and the Transportation of Dangerous Goods Act, which are administered by Transport Canada.

With finding any clues at Irving HQ in St. John - or anyone there with a clue.

Disclosure: I'm a FORMER Irving Oil home heat customer. Watching a local Irving employee try to resolve my issue(s) by phone with St. John is what made me drop them.
