Good afternoon. My name is Julianne, and I will be your operator today. Welcome to CN's Third Quarter 2023 Financial and Operating Results Conference Call. All participants are now in a listen-only mode. After the speakers' remarks, there will be a question-and-answer session, during which we ask that you kindly limit yourself to one question.
I would now like to turn the call over to Stacy Alderson, Assistant Vice President, Investor Relations. Ladies and gentlemen, Ms. Alderson.

Merci, Stacy, et bienvenue à tous. I want to start today by saying a few words about the evolution of our operation structure. We were very pleased last week to announce the appointment of Derek Taylor to Executive Vice President and Chief Field Operating Officer; and Pat Whitehead to Executive Vice President and Chief Network Operating Officer. You've all met both Pat and Derek. They are both accomplished and experienced operating officers, and they will both play prominent roles in CN's future and our success.
