Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you to the committee and also to our guests here this morning.
I'll be quick, because I don't have much time. I first want to publicly acknowledge Mr. Bernard. During his difficult times he was part of an effort that commemorated our Dieppe soldiers by a new monument in Dieppe and should be recognized for that effort during his difficult times. It's a beautiful obelisk that now stands for perpetuity.
I know I won't get all my questions in, but I would ask the committee's indulgence to ask Mr. Mike Vince to be able to come to the table here. I think one of the myths we've heard is that labour does not come to the table and work with industry. I think Mr. Vince can illustrate some of the things he has done with his employees to bring new work to this country on the challenges facing us. If that would be appropriate, I would certainly ask if Mr. Vince could provide testimony.
