Thank you very much for being here.
I will start with the issue we've been hammering on for the last while, and before I move on to specifics, I'll just take it from my notes here: In 2004 the FRCC presented documents to the standing committee showing that maintenance costs charged by Bombardier or Illinois Southern Rail could be about $1,200 to $1,500. A recent leaked confidential memo that we've all seen from the CTA also indicates that maintenance costs could be about $1,900 a year, and yet the revenue cap was $4,329.
You talked about this, Monsieur Mongeau. Have the farmers in fact been paying too much over the last while for maintenance costs?
I ask everybody to address this question, please.
