Thank you very much.
Is there no presentation from Mr. Knubley or Mr. Da Pont? No, okay.
Just as reminder to our committee members, particular attention is paid to the questioning of public servants. The obligation of a witness to answer all questions put by the committee must be balanced against the role the public servants play in providing confidential advice to their ministers. The role of a public servant traditionally has been viewed in relation to the implementation and administration of government policy rather than the determination of what that policy should be. Consequently, public servants have been excused from commenting on the policy decisions made by the government. And I know all of you always respect that.
So with that, we'll turn it over to Mr. Allen for five minutes.
I understand you're splitting your time with Mr. Rousseau.
