Good morning, everyone. Colleagues, if I can have your attention, please, we have a quorum at the table. We're expecting one more of our colleagues to arrive shortly.
We have our witnesses here today. This is our ninth meeting on this particular issue, and we're pleased today to have with us from the Canadian Association of Journalists, Mr. Sean Holman; and from the Canadian Taxpayers Federation, Mr. Aaron Wudrick. Joining us on video conference is Mr. Edward Ring from the Office of the Information and Privacy Commissioner of Newfoundland and Labrador, and with him is Sean Murray, director of special projects.
Thank you all, gentlemen, for being with us here this morning.
The way we're going to start is that I'll go in the order in which I introduced you, allow you to have up to 10 minutes, give or take, in your opening remarks, and then we'll proceed with rounds of questioning.
We have about two hours today that we can allocate to this. I would appreciate everyone's co-operation. For those of you who haven't been here before, there is simultaneous translation. Hopefully we have some amazing wizards working in our technology area here that will keep us all on track.
With that I'll turn it over to Mr. Holman for up to 10 minutes, please, sir.
