Good afternoon. My name is Emma, and I will be your conference operator today. Welcome to CN's Second Quarter 2023 Financial and Operating Results Conference Call. All participants are 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, Interim Assistant Vice President, Investor Relations. Ladies and gentlemen, Ms. Alderson.
