Good morning, everyone.
Welcome to the eighth meeting of the Legislative Committee on Bill C-11.
I'd like to welcome our witnesses this morning, and guests, and of course members.
Our witnesses this morning, for the first half, are the Canadian Music Publishers Association, Catharine Saxberg; AVLA Audio-Video Licensing Agency Inc., Victoria Shepherd and Sundeep Chauhan; and from the
Société professionnelle des auteurs et des compositeurs du Québec, we also have Mario Chenart and Jean-Christian Céré.
Each of you have been briefed by our clerk that you have 10 minutes for opening statements. As Mr. Chenart would know, I'm very strict with time, so if you can't get it within 10 minutes, I will ask you to hold the comments to questions and answers.
We'll start off with the Canadian Music Publishers Association, for 10 minutes.
