I'm sorry for interrupting, Ms. Simbizi. The time is up.
There are five minutes for all the opening statements. You will get another opportunity to speak further when we go into the rounds of questioning.
We will now proceed to Ms. Janet McFetridge, mayor of Champlain, New York.
Welcome, Ms. McFetridge. Thank you for travelling from that far away.
You will have five minutes for your opening remarks. Please begin.
