Thank you.
I'd like to come back to CATSA. You have allocated an additional $9 million for safety considerations. My colleague made an interesting suggestion, namely that we should perhaps revert to the old system where we had our own security guards.
Another colleague also mentioned that last December, people were quite frustrated when they had to go through security. It's a known fact that CATSA contracts out security work. It was clear at the time that the subcontractors did not have enough staff to meet needs. The same situation exists today. Does this mean that an additional $9 million will be allocated next year?
Mr. Merrifield, you stated that the savings of 20% or 25% that could be gained by contracting out this work may eventually not be realized. I'm not sure that contracting out the work is a cost-effective as it should be, considering how important security is and the fact that we're assigning that responsibility to others.
I'm also curious about the number of subcontractors in Canada who handle security matters. How many subcontractors were awarded contracts and who are they?
