Good morning everyone.
We're going to call the 21st meeting of the Standing Committee on Canadian Heritage to order.
Right now we are conducting a review of the Canadian music industry. For the first hour we have three organizations represented. First of all, from the Canadian Independent Recording Artists' Association, we have Zachary Leighton and Gregg Terrence; from the National Music Centre, we have Andrew Mosker and Mary Kapusta; and from Lula Lounge, we have Tracy Jenkins.
Some of you may recall that last week Tracy was fogged in in Toronto, so thank you for being able to join us today.
Each of our organizations will have eight minutes, and then we'll have rounds of questions.
We'll start with our folks from the Canadian Independent Recording Artists' Association. You have the floor for eight minutes.
