Thank you very much, Mr. Chair, and I appreciate being here.
Thank you to all of our witnesses for being here today.
I wanted to follow up on a number of points that Mr. Stewart raised. First and foremost, I do believe that we've lifted 153 long-term water advisories amongst our rural communities. The work that we've done over the past number of years has been significant in terms of ensuring that the infrastructure is there. I realize a number of the issues that you all must have to deal with are about the availability and the installation of infrastructure and how much time that takes.
Perhaps I'll start by asking you a question. If 93.5% of Canadians do have access to connectivity and are connected, for the remainder, what are the biggest challenges that you perceive in terms of getting to that 100%?
