Good afternoon, colleagues.
Thank you for being here a little earlier today. I called the meeting 15 minutes earlier than usual because of a vote that's supposed to take place in the House at 5:45 p.m. The bells will start ringing around 5:15 p.m., so I wanted to make sure we have two hours for the meeting. That's why I asked you to arrive a little earlier.
We are welcoming our first panel of witnesses. I won't name them all. I normally do this out of politeness, but I want to save a bit of time.
We're going to start with Professor Sébastien Sauvé, who is here today as an individual.
Professor Sauvé, the floor is yours. You have five minutes.
