Thank you, Minister. You do have my support. If you have any specifics that you're doing to support the agreement, such as meetings with the U.S. and Mexico, please keep us in mind.
As of September, I think there was about a 10,000-plus FAST application backlog. It's extremely important to our truckers. There's a requirement for an in-person interview, and it must be conducted in the U.S.-based enrolment centres. There was a shortage of FAST drivers prepandemic, and it has been exacerbated by the backlog.
I was wondering if you have any update for us. Is anything being done to eliminate the backlog and ensure that more truckers can receive FAST cards? Are you working with your colleagues? Could you give us an update on that? I'm hearing a lot about it.
