I call the meeting to order.
Good afternoon, everyone. Welcome to the Standing Committee on Transport, Infrastructure and Communities, meeting number three. According to the orders of the day, we are examining the national public transit strategy.
Joining us today is Taki Sarantakis, assistant deputy minister of the policy and communications branch. I'll ask Taki to introduce the people at the table.
We welcome you. We understand and appreciate the fact that you had very short notice. We appreciate that you have come. We look forward to your presentation.
I believe members of the committee have copies of the presentation in French and English.
I'll ask you to begin and to keep your presentation to roughly ten minutes or less, and we'll go from there.
