I call the meeting to order. Good afternoon, colleagues.
This is meeting number 103 of the Standing Committee on Public Accounts on Thursday, June 7, 2018. We are here today in consideration of report 4 of the 2018 spring reports of the Auditor General of Canada, replacing Montreal's Champlain Bridge—Infrastructure Canada.
I would remind our committee and our audience here today that we are televised, so please silence your cellphones as it's much less disruptive if they are silenced right away.
We have with us this afternoon, from the Office of the Auditor General, Mr. Michael Ferguson, Auditor General of Canada, and Mr. Philippe Le Goff, principal.
Welcome.
From Infrastructure Canada we have Ms. Kelly Gillis, deputy minister, infrastructure and communities; Marc Fortin, assistant deputy minister, program operations; and Natalie Bossé, director general, major bridges.
We welcome all our guests.
We will have an opening testimony from our Auditor General, and then we will move to Ms. Gillis.
Welcome, Mr. Ferguson.
