We'll reconvene.
Welcome to the witnesses. We appreciate your making the effort to come.
As you know, this is a pre-budget consultation in advance of the 2019 budget. I might mention, for those who have made their submissions prior to August 15, that we have them on our units and people and members will be referring to them from time to time.
Just before we start officially, I'll go around the room and ask members to introduce themselves so you know where they come from and who they represent.
I'm Wayne Easter. I'm a member of Parliament from Malpeque, Prince Edward Island. That's pretty nearly as far away as you can get from here, but not quite.
