I'm sorry. Thanks, Ryan. I'm trying to go as fast I can to get through this.
From the Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives, we have David Macdonald, senior economist. Finally, from Farm Credit Canada, we have Justine Hendricks, president and chief executive officer, and Jean-Philippe Gervais, chief economist.
You will all have five minutes for your opening presentation.
Mr. Riel, I believe we'll give you a bit of an extension, to six minutes. I think we can stick to that. We'll start with you for your opening comments, please.
