Thank you, Kelly, for the great work that you do at the Corner Brook port.
Thank you to all the witnesses. It's a pleasure to have you here with us today.
Kelly, in your opening remarks, you talked about some of the challenges that smaller ports have. I want to dig into that a little bit. I think it's important for the work of the committee.
You often operate with fewer resources and fewer staff than large port authorities. When you're applying for these complex federal programs, does that application process create another barrier for you? Can you expand on that a little bit, please?
