Welcome back, everyone.
This is our study of Bill C-10, now at the committee stage after succeeding through a second reading vote. Here we are with the study.
I'd like to point out one thing. During the question and answer session, please point out to whom you're directing your question. It will make things flow a lot easier.
To our guests, if you want to weigh in on a certain topic that's being asked about, you can use the “raise hand” function, if you wish, or wave your hand. The chair, meaning me, will not interrupt to provide you the opportunity. You will have to get the attention of the person asking the question.
Right now we're going to start with our five-minute opening statements.
We have with us Mr. Richard Stursberg. We have, from Corus Entertainment, Troy Reeb. We also have, from the Society of Composers, Authors and Music Publishers of Canada, Geneviève Côté and Martin Lavallée.
We're going to start with Mr. Stursberg, for up to five minutes.
Go ahead, please.
