I'll call the meeting back to order.
As we move into the second hour we'll be talking about kernel visual distinguishability. We'll be having a briefing today by the Canadian Grain Commission and the Canadian Wheat Board.
I want to thank all the gentlemen for coming in today. Joining us again is Elwin Hermanson, who is the chief commissioner, Jim Stuart, who is the director of industry services, and Randy Dennis, who is the chief grain inspector of Canada. Welcome. And of course Mr. White will continue on with his testimony as it relates now to KVD.
With that, Mr. Hermanson, I'll turn it over to you for your opening remarks.
