Thank you very much for coming today, Mr. Kruger.
Off the top, I'd like to apologize to you on behalf of Canadians for wasting some of your time here. We look at the motion that we have before us today, and we have these people over here bringing up issues that aren't even relevant to the motion at hand or what you were called for here today.
On that fact, I would like to start, Mr. Kruger.
You were asked a question, and you were starting to answer on the higher costs associated with producing oil and fuels in Canada, and you were cut off before you could finish that answer. I was wondering if you could lay out on the table for this committee what some of those higher costs are and maybe some costs we have here in Canada that other jurisdictions around the world you compete with don't have, so that we can get a good grasp and an understanding of what's happening so a company like yours, which is trying to be competitive today, can also be relevant in the future.
