Thank you, Madam Chair, and thank you, the three of you, for coming to brief the committee on your respective issues.
I'd like to ask Mr. Korosec a question with respect to the Gordie Howe bridge, which was announced by Prime Minister Harper and Governor Snyder in 2015. Three years later it's only now just getting under way. The private owner of the Ambassador Bridge has had multiple legal challenges with respect to the bridge and has indeed even publicly appealed to President Trump to revoke a presidential permit that President Obama granted to green-light construction.
Is one of the reasons for the three-year delay the legal proceedings brought on by the private owner of the Ambassador Bridge?
