I call this meeting to order.
Good morning, everyone. Welcome to Whitehorse, Yukon.
It's a pleasure to be here. It's my first time, as it is for many committee members. It's wonderful to be here in the territories.
We are continuing on pre-budget consultation 2011.
There are three organizations here with us this morning. We have the Tourism Industry Association of the Yukon, the Prospectors and Developers Association of Canada, and the Yukon Chamber of Commerce to present to us.
Each of you will have five minutes for an opening statement.
We will begin with the Tourism Industry Association of the Yukon, please.
