Thank you.

I guess my next question does refer to the Auditor General's report.

Why did you not pursue the alternatives given to you by PSPC to make this contract competitive? In other words, the Auditor General mentioned a suggestion that would have allowed a shorter bidding period of just 10 days, which would have worked with necessary timelines. Why did you not pursue that?
