Thank you for joining us today.
Let me quickly acknowledge the great work that you've done. I echo what my other colleagues have said. Very much like Mr. Blaikie, I'm also new to this committee and I'm trying to get a holistic understanding of some indicators. A question was asked by Mr. McCauley, and you made a comment in response that we really don't have a lot of benchmarks yet.
I'd like to get an understanding. What is the overall budget that you're dealing with? How much of it have you spent? How many contractors has it gone to? Of those contracts, how many of them have been for indigenous? How many of them have gone to women and women's small businesses? Are any of those leading contractors getting some subcontractors coming in too?
I would like to start developing some benchmarks so that I can move on to the next. That gives you about two and half minutes to respond.
