Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thanks to the witnesses for being here and for your testimony.
Ms. Couture and Ms. Walker, you're truck drivers. It was only, for many Canadians, during COVID that we realized how much we rely on you and how essential you are. I want to say thank you for everything you do, and, of course, to the advocates, as well.
This will be basically a nod-type of question for many of you, because I have a few questions. When you have a committee like this, you devise your questions beforehand. Then you hear testimony, and you scrap those questions and go for the testimony questions.
I think it was referenced in 2022 in the fall economic statement that the government committed about $26 million over five years to ESDC to take stronger action on misclassification and conduct more audits. Understanding that this is a complex issue, was that, in your opinion, a decent move to move forward?
A nod from anybody would suffice.
