We're going to call the meeting to order.
For our first hour, our witnesses are with us by video link. With us we have, from the British Columbia Fruit Growers' Association, Mr. Joe Sardinha and Mr. Glen Lucas; and from Winnipeg, Manitoba, at the University of Manitoba, we have Dr. Michael Trevan, Dean, and Dr. Karin Wittenberg.
Thank you very much to all of you for being here.
I guess you've been versed on what our topic of discussion is today, and I would ask that you stick to that.
I look forward to your testimony.
Mr. Sardinha or Mr. Lucas, which one of you is going to lead off? Either way, you have a total of ten minutes between you.
Go ahead, please.
