Thank you, Mr. Chair.
I thank the guests for coming here.
Somebody brought up a scenario that for the next six months we're going to lose at least 50,000 jobs. I guess my first question is whether this is the best-case scenario or worst-case scenario.
And could you give us a snapshot of how it's going to roll out the next six months? What regions do you see being hit first—Atlantic or western or central Canada—and what industries will they be and how are they going to be hit? Are we going to see plants shut down or just see them cutting back staff? I just need a snapshot of what we're going to be facing over the next six months, probably by June, and the unemployment rate or percentage, and things like those.
I'll open it up. It doesn't matter...whoever.
