Let's come to order. A funny thing about this committee is that we always seem to run out of time at the other end, so we'd better get started.
While we're waiting for a couple more members to come in, I want to welcome the witnesses. As you know, these are pre-budget consultations for the budget of 2019. For those who made submissions prior to the middle of August, we have those submissions on iPads. Members will be referring to those once in a while.
Just to give you an idea of where our MPs are from and who they represent, I'll go around the table and ask members to introduce themselves and their ridings.
I'm Wayne Easter. I'm a member of the government party. I'm from the riding of Malpeque, Prince Edward Island.
