Good morning.
My name is Greg Fergus and I am a Quebec member of the Liberal Party of Canada. I represent the riding of Hull—Aylmer, near Ottawa, just across the river.
I apologize for being late this morning, especially to the people in the audience. As you can imagine, I followed the election results in Quebec very closely yesterday. It was a historic election.
I have been a member of the Standing Committee on Finance for two years and a few months. I am very happy to be back in Saint John, which is one of my favourite Canadian cities. It is a pleasure to be here.
