Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I, too, would like to congratulate you, Governor, on your new role. Since it's our first opportunity to meet and get to know you, I'd like to follow up on some of the questions that Mr. Jean was exploring. You talked about your time with EDC. I understand that you joined them back in 1999 as vice-president and chief economist. You were then named senior vice-president, corporate affairs, in 2004, and you have been president and CEO since 2011.
Can you talk a little bit about what those roles entailed and how they provided some experience that will support you in your new role as Governor of the Bank of Canada, given the challenging times we face, as you articulated so clearly in your opening comments?
