I call the meeting to order.
Today is really our first meeting with external witnesses on pre-budget consultations in advance of the 2018 budgets.
In the first hour and a half, we have six witnesses.
Welcome folks. I know that most of you have sent us briefs, and we certainly appreciate having received those briefs. We do know that a few things have changed since August.
We'll start with Mr. Beauregard, vice-president of regulatory affairs at the Aerospace Industries Association of Canada.
