Thank you very much for taking the time and making yourself available today. We certainly appreciate it, and thank you for waiting a couple of extra minutes while we dealt with a motion. We certainly appreciate that, and we appreciate you having the time to give us such a good outline.
I have several questions. I just want to talk about your budgeting process. As you are well aware, the Parliamentary Budget Officer has said they think you're going to need more funding projections for the federal sentencing act, as you've put it before. He thinks there's a requirement gap, for example, in this year of about $1 billion, next year of about $1.2 billion, and the year after of about $1.15 billion. Could you just comment on the differentiation?
And while you're commenting on that...you're hiring an additional 4,119 full-time employees, I think you said. At the beginning of your discourse you said the salary package is about 90% of your budget, so I'm wondering where the discord is here. You say you're hiring a tremendous number of full-time employees and adding to your cost base on a go-forward basis, and we're also hearing from the PBO that you probably haven't budgeted enough money. Could you comment on that, please?
