Thank you very much. No, there is no time.
Before we move on to the next person who is coming before the committee, you asked to table a letter that was quoted. I'm looking here at a message that was sent by computer, signed by Mr. Terry Williston from Real Property Services at Public Works. So we can be absolutely sure this is the one you want us to have translated and circulated, is this the letter you were quoting from?

I was requesting that because during my time for questioning I wasn't able to ask what the date was on the letter quoted by Mr. Rosenberg, or the name that was signed. I believe that's maybe the one I saw earlier. I don't know if that was the one that was quoted from. I was looking for the one quoted from with regard to, I believe, the cleanup of the glycol over the weekend. Could we just get a copy of that particular letter?

Ms. Feille, is there something you would like to say as well?

is this standard procedure? These are not really speaking notes. I did not read everything I had written down here. That's why I did not cover everything. This is merely a check list of sorts.

If I had a prepared statement, I would be happy to turn it over to the committee. However, that's not the case.

He did not make a statement. He merely addressed the committee. Therefore, members will have to refer to the record. This is not a formal document.
Thank you.
I thank you all for coming before the committee.
We will now be taking a very short break, because we will be receiving Mr. Fortier, following....

I call the meeting back to order.
We are welcoming Minister Fortier once again to the committee.
The clock is ticking, Mr. Fortier. We would like to begin.

Mr. Fortier doesn't have a statement, so would you like to begin the questioning?
