Thank you.

Thank you for coming. It's certainly a really important topic that we're focusing on today.

I'm going to start with infrastructure. In your budget 2018, we're hearing about these vast needs.

There was a note that the $450 million that was expected between 2018 and 2023 is now being delayed until after 2022. How do you align this vast need with the commitment by the government? Now you're just going to delay it. It sounds like there's no shortage of projects, so can you tell me why that money is getting delayed until 2022?
