Thank you, Madam Chair.
I'm going to ask you a few questions and then give you guys the time to fill in the blanks following that.
It was mentioned earlier that the seaway is at 50% capacity. Also mentioned was the need to integrate. I believe it was Bruce who talked about integrating the supply chain.
I have to say this. It was Ken who leaned over to me and said that it seems like, in the last two sessions we had, everybody has been working in their little silos versus having a broader strategic plan that takes advantage of all the partners.
With that in mind, including the lack of workforce, the need for further training in safety, the need for a broader picture that looks at the supply chain, and of course, the methods that help fluidity within the supply chain vis-à-vis transportation, my question to all of you is this. What can you contribute to that overall bigger picture from your own teams, adding to the robust trade quarter or strengthening the trade quarter that we have available here in Niagara-Hamilton and the southwestern part of Ontario? How can we strengthen the economic cluster utilizing its stronger multimodal integrated systems? As well, can you speak of the specifics that you guys deal with on a daily basis that can contribute to that overall strategic plan?
We'll start off with James.
