For my first comment here at committee, I want to thank Mr. Badawey for his kind hospitality in hosting us here for these two days and for everything he does for the community here.
On this side of the table, you're dealing with two prairie guys, so I'd say this is more of a fact-finding mission on our end as to how this operates. Please forgive me if some of my questions are maybe a bit naive, especially early on, as we go across the country this week.
You touched on a couple of things. In particular, Mr. Hodgson, in your presentation, you touched on some things in NAFTA that maybe we should be watching for and that would be helpful or hurtful to you, but also on some of the interprovincial challenges you face with Ontario and Quebec by being located where you are. You have a fulsome statement here in your presentation—thank you for this—on the impact for the province of Ontario. I am curious to know if this is similar within the province of Quebec. Could you comment on those two aspects?
We might be sharing our time, depending on how this goes.
