Good morning, everyone and welcome. We don't have everybody here, but we have enough to get the meeting started, and the rest will join us shortly.
We have some excellent groups with us today.
We have Philip Jessop by video conference. He's a professor from the department of chemistry at Queen's University.
We have Todd Beasley, founder, technology co-inventor, and chief operating officer at Canadian Chemical Reclaiming Technologies Ltd.
We have Michael Burt, the corporate director, regulatory and government affairs, at Dow Chemical Canada Inc.
Finally, we have Kerry Doyle, president, and Chris Bush, operations manager, at KPD Consulting Ltd.
Welcome to all.
We usually start with the video conference just in case we lose it. We want to ensure that doesn't happen.
I'm going to let you know a little bit about the process here to try and help. You have 10 minutes to make your statement. When you have one minute to go, I will put up a yellow card to let you know that time is running out. Once the red card goes up, you're passed your time. I don't want you to stop mid-sentence, but just finish your sentence and wrap it up. If all of you could follow that, that would be fantastic.
We'll begin with Philip Jessop. Dr. Jessop, over to you.
