Yasmin Ratansi at the Government Operations and Estimates Committee

We're resuming our study of the federal building maintenance contract.

We now have with us from SNC-Lavalin Operations and Maintenance, Mr. Charles Rate, the president; Mr. Justin Sharp, the senior vice-president, facility management; and Mr. Martin Lefebvre, general manager, Department of Public Works and Government Services Canada.

I understand you have some opening remarks, Mr. Rate. The floor is yours.
