I call this meeting to order.
We're kicking off our study on Bill C-33. It's been thrown to us to review this, and of course, as with any legislation, the sponsoring minister comes in and tells us about all the good things that are in the bill.
So with that, Minister Ritz, I'm glad to see you at the committee. Whenever you show up we get a bigger venue. We actually get to hear our own echoes.
I'll leave it to you to provide opening comments.
