We're going to move forward, colleagues.
We have with us today, as part of the second panel, Ms. Kaitlyn Mitchell from Animal Justice, who is the director of legal advocacy.
Welcome. Thank you for being here with us in person in Ottawa.
From Equestrian Canada, we have Melanie McLearon, director of marketing and communications, who is joining us by video conference.
Welcome, Ms. McLearon.
From Racetracks of Canada Inc., we have Ms. Katherine Curry, who is the president.
Thank you so much for being here.
You have five minutes for opening remarks. Then we're going to turn to questions.
We will have to handle some votes in the back half. Hopefully, we can continue to work on good UC and keep moving forward.
Go ahead, Ms. Mitchell, for up to five minutes.
