Thank you very much, Chair.
Thank you to the witnesses for your testimony and your passion for the industry and for the environment. It's been interesting to hear all these perspectives on this bill.
I want to start with the Chamber of Shipping. Initially, this bill was marketed as being a response to the national supply chain task force. One of the specific, more controversial issues about that was what we do to ensure that we are able to maintain the supply chain when there are labour disruptions, and it was identified as a major concern.
I'm wondering if you can speak to whether you believe the bill should have addressed that issue and maybe specifically address the issue of the impact that the closure of the St. Lawrence Seaway will have on your member companies and your membership in the immediate and medium-term future.
