Thank you, Chair.
Thank you to each of the witnesses.
I'd like to enter into a conversation with you, Mayor Bradley. You are a hugely successful mayor. I think it's 10 elections in a row. You've been an incumbent since 1988. As we have listened over the last few weeks to the people who have come before us, the arguments are compelling. I think I adopt Ms. Alleslev's view that we are in radical agreement. It does seem to come down to a political decision.
As a practising politician talking to other practising politicians who apparently has “written more letters to the governor than St. Paul wrote to the Corinthians” —I hope your fate is not the same fate as Saint Paul's—have you received any indication from the governor as to what her rationale might be for the internationally disruptive position she is taking?
