If the committee is comfortable with that, I appreciate that advice. Thank you for it. I'll set aside five minutes at the end of the meeting for this.
With that, then, I'll invite our guests to come forward from Purolator.
Pursuant to Standing Order 108(2), we are doing a study of the management and operation of Canada Post Corporation. Joining us today from Purolator Courier Ltd. are Mr. William A. Henderson, president and chief executive officer, and Mr. Stewart Bacon, chairman of the board.
Welcome, and thank you for coming today. I'm hoping you're aware that you're allowed to make an opening statement. Then we would move to question-and-answer rounds from the committee.
If you are ready, I would ask you to proceed. I will give you a heads-up that the meeting is conducted in both official languages, so you may have need or desire for translation at some point. You'll see us all wearing headsets throughout the day.
With that, I would ask you to please proceed.
