We have witness testimony for the full two hours.

Each witness has five minutes for their opening remarks.
For witnesses, when you see this yellow card, understand that there is one minute left for your opening remarks or one minute left for your response to questions. When I turn it over, that means the time is up and you'll have to stop talking shortly.
Ms. Potvin, you have the floor for five minutes.
