I call this meeting to order.
I want to welcome everybody to committee. We're kicking off our new study today on “Product of Canada” claims.
I want to welcome, first, from the CFIA, Debra Bryanton, executive director of the food safety directorate; and Carla Barry, acting director of consumer protection. From the Competition Bureau, we have Colette Downie, deputy commissioner of competition; Andrea Rosen, acting deputy commissioner of competition in the fair business practices branch; and Richard Taylor, deputy commissioner of competition for the civil matters branch.
Welcome to all of you. I'll open it up.
Andrea, I believe you're going to start us off with the first comments. Please keep it to 10 minutes or less.
Mr. Gaudet.
