Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you very much for being here, Mr. DeMarco.
I get the sense from your report that you've made a stark observation, at least for 2022, when the department missed the target by a mile. That will necessarily have a domino effect. If the government fell that short of its 2022 target, the rest of the planting effort will presumably be affected.
You said that the government was unlikely to reach its target unless significant changes were made. Are those significant changes achievable, and does the government currently have a plan to make those changes?
