Thank you so much for those opening comments.
I will point out to members before we start our rounds of questions that we invited the ministers and officials to join us today for the Auditor General's two reports. Unfortunately, due to their schedules, they weren't able to join us, so that's why we have both of the Auditor General's reports happening today. There may be technical items that would be more appropriately addressed to the officials and the ministers. I know the Auditor General and her team will do the best they can to answer, but there may be times when they will need to deflect to the departments.
We are working with the ministers' teams to find dates to have them come for follow-up questions on both of these studies. I don't have dates, but we are trying to get them as soon as possible.
Just as you get into your questions, know that this may be a response you get. However, we're going to have the best conversation we can based on the study that was done, particularly now in this first hour on housing.
First up I have Mr. Zimmer for six minutes.
