Colleagues, we're going to get back at it.
Welcome to the second panel of our study on animal biosecurity preparedness. We have three more great witnesses lined up.
First of all, from the Canadian Cattle Association, in the room, we have Matt Bowman, co-chair of the animal health and care committee. Mr. Bowman, thank you for taking the time to be here.
Online, we have Dr. Leigh Rosengren, chief veterinary officer. Thank you for joining us. I heard earlier, I think, you're from Saskatchewan. You were talking about getting cattle out into the field, so I look forward to hearing some of your testimony tonight.
From the Canadian Veterinary Medical Association, we have Dr. Trevor Lawson, incoming president. Mr. Lawson is a Nova Scotian and works at a veterinary firm in my riding of Kings—Hants, so it's good to see a fellow Bluenoser.
Lastly, from the Union des producteurs agricoles, we have Paul Doyon, senior vice-president general, and Guylain Charron, agricultural research and policy advisor, agronomy.
Each group will have five minutes for opening remarks.
I'm going to start with the Canadian Cattle Association, with Mr. Bowman or Ms. Rosengren.
