Thank you, Mr. Chair, and I want to thank all the witnesses for joining us today.
I just want to give a little context. I represent Calgary Skyview, which is northeast Calgary and home to many truck drivers and trucking and logistics companies, so I have had many opportunities to engage through trucking town halls and meet and greets with members of the industry, who do a tremendous job across the country.
Mr. Laskowski, I want to start with you. You talked about 30,000 trucking vacancies and shortages. What does that look like a few years from now? If you look at five years out, what do you anticipate based on the data? Is your data accurate, and do you think it's reliable that we can project out five years from now? What do the numbers look like then?
