Good morning. I call this meeting to order.
Please take your seats and we'll get going. We're already short on time.
I'd like to welcome our first group of witnesses. Mr. Marcel Groleau is the chair of the Union des producteurs agricoles du Québec. He is accompanied by Ms. Florence Bouchard-Santerre. We also welcome Ms. Peggy Baillie, executive director of Local Food and Farm Co-ops.
Welcome to you all.
You will each have a short period of four minutes to make your presentation. This will give us more time for questions.
Mr. Groleau, you will have the floor first, for four minutes. You may share your speaking time if you wish.
