Thank you, Mr. Louis.
To our witnesses, Ms. Akman and Mr. Rosser, thank you on behalf of the committee for being here.
We're going to move to our second panel.
Colleagues, please don't go far because this is going to be a quick transition, and we're going to get right into the second panel. Just hold tight, and we're going to get rocking and rolling.
That was a very quick transition.
Thank you to all our witness, and indeed, our clerk and our wonderful team in the room making this happen.
We'll start with the second panel, and today we're fortunate to have a number of witnesses who are joining us by video conference.
First, from Agri-Food Innovation Council, we have Serge Buy, who is the chief executive officer. From the Canadian Cattlemen's Association, we have Bob Lowe, who serves as the president; and Fawn Jackson, who is director of policy and international affairs. From Food and Beverage Canada, we have Kathleen Sullivan, who serves as the chief executive officer.
We're going to have five minutes for opening comments.
I'm going to start with you, Mr. Buy.
