The Chair Liberal Pat Finnigan

Good afternoon, everyone.

I'm sorry; there were votes.

This time of year you never know. We have to go to vote when we have to and sometimes it's at the last minute.

So we'll make use of the time we have.

We have about 45 minutes. We have to do a little bit of business for the drafting instruction and the subcommittee report. We'll see how the conversation goes.

Welcome and thank you very much for being here, Dr. Leach and Mr. Metatawabin.

We'll give you seven minutes for your opening remarks and then we'll go to the questions.

Mr. Metatawabin, you may begin.
