I call the meeting of the Standing Committee on Transport, Infrastructure and Communities back to order.
We will now continue with the main estimates, along with the investing in Canada plan.
A number of votes were referred to the committee on Thursday, February 23, 2017, namely vote 1 under Canadian Air Transport Security Authority; vote 1 under Canadian Transportation Agency; votes 1, 5, 10, 15, and 20 under Department of Transport; vote 1 under Marine Atlantic Inc.; vote 1 under The Federal Bridge Corporation Limited; vote 1 under VIA Rail Canada Inc.; votes 1, 5, and 10 under Office of Infrastructure of Canada; vote 1 under The Jacques-Cartier and Champlain Bridges Inc.; vote 1 under Windsor-Detroit Bridge Authority; and votes 1 and 5 under PPP Canada Inc.
We are delighted to welcome the Honourable Marc Garneau, Minister of Transport, along with his officials: Mr. Michael Keenan, deputy minister, and Mr. André Lapointe, chief financial officer. Welcome. It's nice to have you back with us.
We also have the pleasure of having the Honourable Amarjeet Sohi, Minister of Infrastructure and Communities, along with his officials: Mr. Tremblay, deputy minister; Mr. Fortin; Ms. Boileau; and the others who are joining us today.
Welcome, everyone. Thank you very much for coming. As you are aware, we have only an hour, and then, no doubt, many questions.
I shall start the discussion by calling vote 1 under Canadian Air Transport Security Authority.
Mr. Garneau, it's over to you for five minutes.
