Good afternoon, everyone. It's good to be here.

I want to welcome everyone. We're going to open our meeting number six. This is on the Canada-European Union Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement and its effect on Canadian agriculture.

I want to welcome the witnesses. First of all from the Alberta Barley Commission, Lisa Skierka.

From the Barley Council of Canada, Brian Otto, chairman.

Lisa is actually the general manager and president of the Canadian Agri-Food Trade Alliance.

Thank you both for coming. You have 10 minutes for opening remarks.

I'll go to Lisa first.
