We'll call the meeting to order.
Welcome to meeting number 30 of the House of Commons Standing Committee on Finance. Pursuant to the committee's motion adopted on Friday, February 5, 2021, the committee is meeting to study all aspects of COVID-19 spending and programs.
Today's meeting is taking place in a hybrid format, pursuant to the House order of January 25, 2021. Therefore, members are attending in person in the room and remotely using the Zoom application. The proceedings will be made available via the House of Commons website. So that you're aware, the webcast will always show the person speaking rather than the entirety of the committee.
In order to save time, we'll forgo the rest of the formalities.
I want to welcome the witnesses.
Thank you for appearing and going through the procedures of this new way we seem to be having to do things. We have six witnesses, or six associations, during these 90 minutes. If you could hold your remarks to about five minutes, it will mean a fair bit more time for questions.
We'll start, then, with Mr. Juneau, chief executive officer of the association of ski resorts in Quebec, and Jean-Michel Ryan, chairman of the board and chief executive officer of Mount Sutton.
Go ahead, Mr. Juneau.
