I'm happy to see you again, Mr. Lemire.
First, let me tell you that the telemeeting I held was with the heads of the telecom companies. The CRTC, which is an independent body, did not attend this meeting.
In the early hours of the outage, when we were still wondering if it was a cyber‑attack, in the first discussion I had with the president of Rogers, he informed me of what had happened. He explained to me the initial findings of an internal investigation. He told me that the company had asked international experts to help them determine the nature of the outage. They also asked their equipment vendors to help get the system back online as quickly as possible.
I spoke to the president of Rogers another time later. Later, we had this telemeeting with the heads of the other six major telecommunications companies in the country. That's the timeline.
