Thank you to our witnesses for appearing today. This is an ambitious meeting in which we're trying to ask questions about five different reports, so I'll try to be as succinct as I can.
Starting with species at risk act, Mr. DeMarco, one sentence that really stood out for me in your report was that the federal government has invoked emergency orders only three times. On all three occasions it was due to pressure from external sources. Is that how the species at risk framework is supposed to work?
What were those three sources of external pressure?
