Good morning, colleagues. Winter has arrived and I see we've all managed to get here on time. Notwithstanding the cold temperatures outside, we'll have a nice warm friendly meeting here today, I'm sure.
We're going to continue with our study of the Security of Canada Information-Sharing Act, otherwise known as SCISA. We're privileged to have with us today, from the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada, the Commissioner himself, Mr. Therrien, along with Ms. Kosseim and Mr. Morgan, who are no strangers to appearing before the committee. This is for the first hour of our committee meeting today. In the second hour we have another panel.
Colleagues, before we go any further, I want to say publicly, thank you very much, to Mr. Lightbound, one of the vice-chairs, who has filled in admirably in my absence for the last couple of weeks, as I have had to go to subcommittees of liaison and other things.
Mr. Lightbound, I really do appreciate it, so thank you very much.
Without further ado, Mr. Commissioner, if you would like to present your opening remarks, then we'll proceed to rounds of questions. Thank you for appearing today.
