We'll get started.
We don't have all of our witnesses here. We're missing one, but he may be down in security; I understand there's quite a lineup. Hopefully, he'll be here soon. There are four witnesses today in total. I think we can get started.
Welcome, everybody. I'd like to welcome our guests. Today we are having our academic panel for the CEPA review. We really appreciate all of you being here. To those on video conference, thank you very much.
I will introduce everyone. We have Mark Winfield, professor, faculty of environmental studies at York University. Welcome. We have Lynda Collins, associate professor, centre for environmental law and global sustainability, faculty of law, common law section, University of Ottawa. That's quite a title. We have Meinhard Doelle, professor, Schulich school of law at Dalhousie University. He's with us by video conference. We're going to start with you in a minute. We have Daniel Krewski, professor and director, faculty of medicine, University of Ottawa. I'm sure he'll be coming soon.
We have a couple of rules of engagement. We have 10 minutes for depositions. We're going to do all of those first. Then we'll start our rounds of questioning, which will be six minutes of questions and answers. I'm fairly strict. We have these little cards that I use, which is very hard for everybody. We have a yellow card that basically lets you know you're within one minute left. When a red card goes up, it means that you're out of time. I don't want you to end right away, but just finish your thought, and we'll end it at that point, if you don't mind. I do that to guests and to the committee members as well. Everyone is treated equally.
We have a full suite of members in the room, so we'll get started.
We'll get started with Meinhard Doelle, if you don't mind. Thank you.
