I'll ask the clerk then to prepare that and deliver it tomorrow on your behalf.
All of us have memories of Charles, and I don't think we all can share them at this point, but let's take a minute just to remember him.
[A moment of silence observed]
Thank you.
I think it's fitting as well that Karen Kraft Sloan hunted me down on Saturday, when Charles passed away, to let me know. It probably shows some of the compatibility that we developed, and comradeship and friendship, and so on, within the committee over the years, that someone as avid as Karen Kraft Sloan would be the one to chase me down and advise me about Charles's passing. That says a lot, I think, for what has happened in this place.
Anyway, I would like to welcome Sheila Fraser, of course, a good friend of ours, who has been here a number of times, our Auditor General; and our new environment commissioner, Scott Vaughan.
What we'd like is just a brief presentation.
Members, I would suggest that we keep this as brief as possible so that we can get on with the other business.
We did allocate 90 minutes, but if we can cut that to 60 minutes or less, I'm sure it will help you as well, and we'll move on. It's not that we're not interested; it's just that time is a problem to us, as always.
Let me ask you to make a brief presentation; then we'll ask questions.
