We'll call the meeting to order and welcome our witnesses. Pursuant to Standing Order 108(2), these are the pre-budget consultations for the 2016 budget.
I welcome the witnesses here this afternoon. Thank you for coming on relatively short notice. As you're well aware, it's a pretty tight time frame, and we're doing our best to hear a number of witnesses.
We'll start with Andrew Jackson from the Broadbent Institute. You have the floor.
