Thank you.
Thank you, Mr. Auditor General, for your report.
Just off the top, you've done a number of them here, and we'll obviously focus on one or two. On the crown corporations, I think these are huge dollar amounts that have an impact on the economy of Canada—up to $375 billion in assets. It's worth noting the ones that have been audited: the Dairy Commission, the Race Relations Foundation, the Public Sector Pension Investment Board. Those are large dollars, and there were no significant deficiencies. I just wanted to highlight that before I move to my questions and comments.
I want to go first to the report on Canada's civil aviation industry. My colleague brought up the point that many of us fly all the time. We consider this to be a safe industry when we get on a plane. My understanding is that somewhere between 2000 and 2010, the accident rate actually decreased by about 25%, while air travel has increased significantly. There are around 5,000 companies operating 34,000 aircraft in Canada.
I think there were nine recommendations in total. Do you think it is reasonable that they would deal with these recommendations by 2013?
