Okay. Thank you.
Mr. Chair, I think I'll finish with just a comment. I think it's important that we not lose the forest for the trees here.
To be sure, the increased cost of the bridge is a lot of money, at some $500 million. However—and I know this wasn't the focus of the audit—the decision to remove the tolls on this bridge has a far bigger impact on the fiscal framework than any other single factor, by a factor of six. We're losing $3 billion in revenue in the fisc, as they call it, over the next 30 years, as a result of non-collection of revenues.
We're also facing much greater increased operational costs of the bridge as a result of the 10 million extra cars and trucks crossing it. I assume that in the fall we'll get some numbers on that aspect. We're also facing significantly increased greenhouse gas emissions, which is particularly relevant because we don't yet have a comprehensive plan to get us to 2030.
I just make that point because I think it's important for those issues to be taken into account when we're reviewing the government's decision and the management of this bridge.
