Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Just to recap, we've heard from the ministry that we're talking about $42 million, not $15 billion. It's not even close.
The minister made it clear that the Government of Canada is fighting for every job and for the auto sector, not just for today in this period but also for future positioning. Despite assurances last week by Mr. Hines of Stellantis that he wants to keep production in Canada, they did not flag material changes or discuss mitigating solutions with sufficient notice to the ministry. That is my understanding.
The SIF contract that we have—just using it as a template—has a resolution process. The minister said today that she is going to embark on that process. Can you tell us a bit about what the next steps look like so that we can fight to retain those jobs, today and in the future?
