Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you to the witnesses for appearing.

Mr. Chair, if I don't use all my time—I'm not sure if I will—I'd like to split it with my colleague Mr. Mayes.

Let me return to the issue of the maritime lien for a moment. As a foundational question, how significant is the problem of unpaid invoices for Canadian ship suppliers? Can you scope that out a little bit for us?

I'm not sure who wants to answer that.
