Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.

I'll be directing some of my question to you, Henry. You mentioned that there were 122,000 direct and indirect jobs in the steel industry. Well, 14,000 of those direct and indirect jobs are in Sault Ste. Marie at Essar Steel and Tenaris tubes, and 8,000 other pensioners live in the area as well.

I wanted to ask you about budget 2016, which you alluded to, in terms of the modernization and the trade remedies that were put in there. Have they been successful? Perhaps you could describe what they did for the industry before I go on to 2017.
