Good afternoon, everyone.
I'd like to welcome our departmental officials here today.
We set aside the meeting today to look at items that were referred to us from the finance committee on Bill C-86. We've allocated the full meeting today to hearing from our departmental officials. We've been asked to discuss three sections of Bill C-86. We'll go through a standard piece with department officials. I think both Finance and Natural Resources are going to make opening comments, but not Environment Canada.
You have up to 10 minutes for your opening statements. If you need less, that's fine. Then we'll go into our standard rounds of questions, at six minutes each.
Mr. Jovanovic, go ahead.
