Irek Kusmierczyk at the Government Operations and Estimates Committee

Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you very much, Mr. Giroux, for coming here once again and providing your testimony and insights.

When you look at the overall life-cycle cost of this project, $306 billion, that number is obviously eye-watering, no matter how you look at it.

At the same time, can you explain the actual life cycle of this project? This is not a one-time, one-year expense. This is over a period of time. Can you tell us how many years that life cycle encompasses?
