Thank you, Mr. Chair, and thank you to our guests this afternoon.
I want to start with you, Mr. Reid. I was hoping you could expand on a comment that you made in your statement. You said that the Manitoba Red River Floodway expansion is off limits to PCA contractors. I know there are many who would argue that this would not be the case. There's a difference of opinion on that. I'd like you to articulate why you would make that statement, and how you see that very clearly defined as they are not allowed to be on that site.
