Minister, thank you for being here.
I apologize for some of the antics across the way. The disrespect is really unfortunate, because I appreciate, and I think most Canadians appreciate, the work that's being done to try to bring transparency and greater order to procurement. Thousands and thousands of contracts are done by the Canadian government, and some are not done properly, which we have investigated and members of the team have ventured to correct.
I have three questions.
One is with regard to the Canada public land bank. In my community of Mississauga—Lakeshore, at 1 Port Street East, the Canada Lands Company is the property owner of a beautiful marina in the area. A lot of revitalization has been done in the community—they're very grateful for that—and is continuing. The residents are eager to see this revitalization.
Can you talk about how your department is working to convert underutilized and vacant properties into housing?
