Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Thank you, Ms. Proud, for appearing today.

I think I'll start with what the code is to do and what it is not to do. I'm asking if you can expand on that.

I'm going to read you a quote here that says, “it is important to recognize the distinction between contract law in Canada and the voluntary Code.”

Can you draw that out a bit? What's the difference between contract law and a voluntary code?

See context to find out what was said next.
