Thank you, Ms. MacDermott.
Having done this job for about a year and a half now, I completely appreciate and understand your concerns regarding the gap between the funders—or the government—and the organizations on the ground in terms of understanding the logistics and the realities of your budget or timetable. I was in that position for a long time. We used to scramble to get in those applications and were thrilled when we got the funding, and we never complained for fear of not getting it again.
We need to make sure that we're bringing this stuff back to the decision-makers so that we can get on the same page for a lot of these things. Thank you very much.
We're going to get started with questions now.
For six minutes, MP Vecchio, you're up first.
