Thank you very much, honourable colleague.
I have a couple, and the first one I'll fire out.
I think I have your answer in regard to contracting out, and I understand what you're saying, Mr. Dahl. My experience with contracting out, specifically in the highway sector in British Columbia, is that it has been a disaster in the area of quality, even going as far as safety is concerned.
I'd like to hear what you have to say, Terry and Colleen, in regard to that—and maybe you could pick up on this also. Do you see the quality of the work of the inspectors suffering if part of the work is being contracted out? If it shouldn't be contracted out, obviously there are budgetary implications. Then do we need more funding from the federal government for this? That's the first question.
