Ladies and gentlemen, we'll call this meeting to order.
Before us this morning, for the first hour, we have the Canadian Wheat Board witnesses. Mr. Adrian Measner is the president; Ken Ritter is the chair of the board of directors; David Anderson was also requested by Mr. Steckle, I believe it was, to make a presentation and answer questions on the Wheat Board.
I understand, Ken, that you have a statement you want to give. Please go ahead with that.
Thank you.
