Good morning, everyone. I'm going to call to order meeting number 23 of the Standing Committee on Canadian Heritage.

We are currently conducting a study and a review of the Canadian music industry.

We have quite a number of witnesses with us today. From what is known as FACTOR, the Foundation Assisting Canadian Talent on Recordings, we have Susan Wheeler and Duncan McKie, as well as Allison Outhit. From Fondation Musicaction we have Pierre Rodrigue and Louise Chenail. From Fonds RadioStar we have François Bissoondoyal and Louise Chenail as well.

We are going to hear from our witness groups, each of whom will have eight minutes in total. We will start with FACTOR.

You have the floor for eight minutes.
