The Chair Liberal Pat Finnigan

We're going to get going. We'll start with our witnesses.

I want to welcome Ms. Heather Watson from Farm Management Canada. You're going to pairing with Mr. Mervin Wiseman, whom I know very well, and who is on the phone at the other end. His phone, I understand, will always be on, so if there are questions, we can refer to Mr. Wiseman. He's the director of Farm Management Canada. Also, with FarmStart, we have Ms. Christie Young, executive director. Welcome to both of you.

We shall start with a 10-minute opening statement. Ms. Watson, you can share with Mr. Wiseman if you wish.
