Thank you, Chair.
Thank you, Minister, for appearing today. It's good to see you again.
I'd like to begin my questions in northwest British Columbia. It's been almost exactly one year since the tugboat, the Ingenika, sank in rough weather just south of Kitimat, taking the lives of Charley Cragg and Troy Pearson. In that year, there have been no answers for the families of these two men. There have been no answers about what happened to their loved ones. There have been no answers about what this government is doing to ensure the safety of mariners who go to work every single day on our seas.
In your answer to this question, I'd like you to address Judy Carlick-Pearson and Genevieve Cragg, the wife and the mother of the two men who died in this tragic accident. Can you tell them when they are going to get answers as to what happened and what you are doing to ensure the safety of mariners on our coast?
