Thanks, Chair.

Gentlemen, thanks for being here.

I want to begin with a couple of quick fact checks. When the minister came to committee here some time ago, she suggested not once but twice that she wanted CN here to testify. In fact, today in the House of Commons she reiterated it for a third time.

I just want to get this on the record. I wanted to have the regulator here side by side with you—not just CN but the regulator—because I don't really appreciate the minister's trying to deflect blame. This is a partnership between the regulated sector and the regulator through Transport Canada.

I want to get that on the record, Mr. Chair, very clearly.

My first question is this. Are your gross revenues still “just north of $10 billion”, Mr. Vena?
