The Chair Liberal Diane Marleau

I'll call the meeting to order, seeing that we have a quorum.

We have before us today Minister Fortier, the Minister of Public Works and Government Services. Mr. Fortier has been before us many times.

We thank you for making yourself available. We hope your cold has improved, because we know that last year you were absolutely unable to attend. It happens to all of us sometimes. We're pleased to have been able to accommodate you.

You know how the committee works, so I'm going to turn it over to you, Mr. Fortier, with up to 10 minutes for whatever is your desire at this point.
