I call the meeting to order.
Thank you, everyone, for taking your seats.
I want to welcome our witnesses, Mr. Ruest and Mr. Girouard. They're here for technical help with the clause-by-clause study on Bill C-311, which we'll be dealing with today.
I first want to welcome everyone to meeting 49 of the Standing Committee of Canadian Heritage this afternoon in room 253-D in Centre Block.
We'll move right into Bill C-311, an act to amend the Holidays Act for Remembrance Day.
We'll proceed to clause-by-clause study.
I will seek if clause 1 should carry.
