We will resume our pre-budget consultations. I will ask members and witnesses to find their seats, please.
We have five organizations in the second panel: the Saskatchewan Association of Rural Municipalities; the Edmonton Chamber of Commerce; the Federation of Saskatchewan Indian Nations; the Canadian Federation of Apartment Associations; and the Saskatchewan Rental Housing Industry Association.
You each have a maximum of five minutes for an opening statement and we'll proceed in that order.
Mr. Marit, I believe you'll be presenting for the Saskatchewan Association of Rural Municipalities.
