I know everyone is having very interesting discussions, but if I may ask members and witnesses to find their seats, we will begin the second panel of our pre-budget consultations here in Toronto.
We have for the next hour-and-a-half panel a number of organizations. We have with us the Ontario Coalition for Social Justice, the National Council of Welfare, the Canadian Institute of Actuaries, the Wellesley Institute, the Canadian Association of Physicists, the Association of International Automobile Manufacturers of Canada, the Canadian Association of Income Funds, and Hoffmann-La Roche Limited.
So we have a lot of organizations here for the next hour and a half. Let me ask each of you to present, for no more than five minutes, an opening statement, going in the order we outlined. Then we will have questions from members of the committee.
We will start with Mr. Argue, please.
