Thank you, Mr. Ferguson.
Mr. Seaman and Mr. Kristmanson, you haven't had a funding increase since 2009-10. As you mentioned, in its most recent budget, the government set out $55 million in additional funding over the next two years.
Why has the NCC not been able to obtain the funding it needs to manage and maintain its assets?
Over the past eight years, I would think you had spoken with both the previous government and ours, of course. I'm curious as to why you weren't able to get the previous government to pay attention to your needs and give you the necessary funding. As a result, an important building—the prime minister's residence—is in such poor condition that it is unfit for occupants.
