Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thanks very much to the witnesses.
At the risk of asking you to repeat yourself, I would simply like you to give us a list of recommendations you would like to see in our report. Your recommendations must focus on the federal government's role, as you described it and as my colleagues have described it as well. Mistaking us for the provinces will not be much help; we are not the provinces.
Ideally, in view of what you said, could you summarize or restate the recommendations you want to make to us?
I will put the question first to Mr. Shea and Mr. Thompson.
Perhaps you could start, please.
