We're back.
It's great to have the Minister of Housing, Infrastructure and Communities, the Honourable Sean Fraser, with us today. Of course, he's no stranger to the finance committee, because he sat on this committee for a number of years.
Welcome back.
We also have PS Fragiskatos, who sat on this committee for many years.
Joining the minister is the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation interim chief financial officer and senior vice-president of policy, Nadine Leblanc, as well as the chief economist for CMHC, Bob Dugan. Welcome.
From the Office of Infrastructure Canada, we have deputy minister Kelly Gillis. Welcome.
Minister, you will now have the opportunity to make some opening remarks, and then we'll get into the members' questions.
