Thank you for the question.
The port authorities of Montreal, Quebec City and Trois-RIvières did in fact conclude an agreement in June. That agreement was further to another one we had signed a few years earlier with the Montreal port authority only. Last year, we broadened the partnership to include Quebec City.
This agreement allows us to make progress. That progress might not be as noticeable to people from the outside, but I can tell you that our teams are working hard in the three port authorities. We have created working groups that focus specifically on matters of interest to the three organizations, such as the environment, in order to adopt exemplary environmental management practices and so each port shares as much expertise as possible with the other ports.
We also created a working group focusing on marine traffic to facilitate the work of marine carriers. We would like the three ports to follow the same steps so that activities are conducted more smoothly.
So there are four working groups looking at different aspects of our three organizations, but we have reached the limit of what the law allows us to do. We would like to do even more with respect to trade and infrastructure development.
We might even want to be able to invest in neighbouring port facilities, once again to optimize the operations of the St. Lawrence port network as a system. That would require us to collaborate on our development plans and strategic plans in order to get an overview.
Ultimately, we will get a lot more done than each port would able to do on its own. That is why...
