Okay, we'll reconvene and thank the witnesses for coming.
As you know, pursuant to Standing Order 83.1, the finance committee is doing pre-budget consultations in advance of the 2017 budget.
We will ask witnesses to try to hold their presentations to about five minutes to leave more time for questions. I think you know the theme that we would like to try to focus on—although it is pre-budget and you can cover whatever you like—and it is what we need to do in this country to achieve better economic growth.
To start, I'll ask members of the committee to introduce themselves so that you know where they're from and what region they represent.
We'll start with Mr. Grewal.
