I did not prepare a statement to initiate this part of the discussion.
I would simply like to point out that Ms. Lagacé, our director of Finance and Procurement, agreed to interrupt her sick leave in order to be here to reply to all of the difficult questions. I want to thank her. Her doctor does not think she should be here, but as a very dedicated person, she insisted on being here for this meeting.
I also want to thank Mario Séguin, the acting assistant commissioner.
I will probably ask them to answer for me, rather than putting them in the situation where they would have to correct what I say.
We are ready to answer your questions.
