I call this meeting to order. This is the nineteenth meeting of the Standing Committee on Finance.
I want to thank all our witnesses for being here with us this afternoon. We are continuing our study of Bill C-9, An Act to implement certain provisions of the budget tabled in Parliament on March 4, 2010, pursuant to the order of reference of Monday, April 19, 2010.
We have two hours for this panel. We have six organizations with us here this afternoon: the Air Transport Association of Canada; the Retail Council of Canada; the Tourism Industry Association of Canada; Canada Post Corporation; the Canadian Labour Congress; and the Canadian Printing Industries Association.
Thanks to all of you for coming out today. You each have five minutes for an opening statement. We will proceed in the order listed in terms of organizations, and then we will go to questions from members. We will start with Mr. McKenna.
Are you presenting on behalf of your organization?
